All-NBA Boston Celtics forwards Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown combined for an incredible 69 points in just three quarters against the Washington Wizards on Monday night as the duo helped power the Celtics to a blowout win that saw all five starters sit for the game’s final frame.
The Celtics established an early lead, with the Georgia native’s sharpshooting standing out. The Wizards’ defense struggled to contain the Celtics’ offensive onslaught, as Tatum and Brown showcased their offensive skills, with Tatum making laser-guided passes, and Brown’s 3-point shooting was on fire with the Cal alum seemingly able to hit from anywhere on the floor.
With the win, the Celtics improved to 3-0 for the season so far with the 126-107 victory against Washington.
The performance of Brown and Tatum stood out in the national media, with the NBA’s official YouTube channel compiling a highlight clip of their best plays of the night embedded above.
