The Celtics are playing the second half of a back-to-back that opened with a 102-100 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers. Jaylen Brown was the leading scorer in that game with 24 with five assists to go along with his scoring, but he also missed the first of two free throws with less than a minute remaining and the team down 1. And the squad would allow the game-winning bucket on a put-back after holding the opposition to only seven offensive rebounds until that final possession.
Boston on the other hand had 13 offensive boards and won the battle on the glass 53-44 against Philadelphia. Anfernee Simons provided 17 off the bench, including the first 10 points in the fourth quarter for the Celtics. Jordan Walsh was also a major contributor from off the bench, scoring 8 points, getting seven rebounds, two steals and two blocks. Derrick White had 18 and seven helpers and two blocks as the team fell to 5-7.
The Grizzlies are 4-8 and have lost six of their last seven. They are also playing the second half of a back-to-back and also the second game in a four-game road trip. On Tuesday, Memphis lost to the New York Knicks 133-120 as Santi Aldama had 19 off the bench, matching Jaren Jackson Jr. for the team high. Jaylen Wells added 18 and a pair of steals and Ja Morant went for 16 and 10 assists, but he also had eight turnovers. And the bench trio of Cedric Coward, Vince Williams Jr. and Cam Spencer combined for 36 points, 15 assists, 14 rebounds, three steals and two blocks.
