The Summer Celtics’ second strong of Vincent Valerio-Bodon, Reggie Kisoonlal, and Kamar Baldwin won the day for Boston.

The Boston Celtics picked up their second win of the NBA’s 2023 Las Vegas Summer League on Saturday evening, beating the Orlando Magic, 94-77, moments after news broke of the Celtics signing guard Jay Scrubb to a two-way deal for the 2023-24 season.

Boston won convincingly behind a bench-driven effort: Three players came off the pine to put up double figures. The Celtics were led by forward Vincent Valerio-Bodon with 13 points and 6 rebounds; center Reggie Kisoonlal with 12 points, 5 boards and 2 blocks; and guard Kamar Baldwin with 10 points and 6 assists.

Among the starters, wing Jordan Walsh (12 points, 4 rebounds) and forward Justin Bean (10 points) helped secure the win.

The Celtics finishes 2-3 in Las Vegas Summer League play.
