The Boston Celtics may not have had much to play for in terms of seeding in their home game against the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday, but they still managed to hold off a determined Raps squad hungry to make up some late-season wins in a 97-93 affair that saw Toronto keep it close through three of the game’s four quarters.
Malcolm Brogdon (29 points, 5 rebounds) shone in Boston’s win in particular to lead the Celtics in scoring off of the bench, and Jaylen Brown (25 points, 11 boards, 5 assists) did much of the heavy lifting for the team with Jayson Tatum and Al Horford resting. Derrick White (17 points) and Mike Muscala (12 points, 6 rebounds) also had solid outings.
Let’s take a look at some of the best plays captured in images from the Celtics’ game No. 80 of their 2022-23 campaign.
