Irving gets 21, Smart shows hustle, Brown, Rozier and Baynes all in double-figures (videos)



Kyrie Irving got game-high 21 points in his second preseason game with the Celtics as Boston beat the Sixers in Philladelphia. Irving shot 5-for-7 from downtown and proved that he can be very dangerous offensive weapon for the Celtics. Jaylen Brown scored 10 points, including powerful one-handed slam on a fastbreak. Gordon Hayward looked a little bit more comfortable in Philly as he finished with nine points and dished out five assists. It's great to see Hayward being another option for Boston in the pick-and-roll actions.




Jayson Tatum got nine points and five rebounds on his own with Markelle Fultz being sidelined with an injury. Aron Baynes had another solid output as he finishede with 12 points and five boards, doing all the right things on both ends of the floor. Marcus Smart didn't care it's just a preseason and showed some great hustle as he got 11 points (2-for-2 for three!), four rebounds, three assists and three steals. Terry Rozier was Celtics' highest scorer off the bench with 13 points to go along with three dimes.
