Celtics – Grizzlies highs, lows, works in progress: analyzing the game

It may be hard to take much away from such a lopsided game, but we found some points of note to dig into.

Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown may have scored a career-high 42 points in Wednesday night’s 126 – 107 win over the Memphis Grizzlies worth talking about.

And while whatever assessment we make about the game should be taken with a fairly large grain of salt given there were 11 players out between both franchises, the contest showed us several things that will help the Celtics adjust moving forward. Five games into the 2020-21 NBA season, we’re starting to get a rough outline of what this team could be, so in true kaizen fashion, let’s review the highs, the lows, and the ongoing works in progress.
