Jayson Tatum goes for a career high as Celtics destroy Pelicans 140-105 to break 3 game skid
So much for that losing steak. Jayson Tatum went for a new career high 41 points to pace the Celtics past the Pelicans in a blowout 35 point win. Enes Kanter had another MONSTER night with 22 points and 19 rebounds. Gordon Hayward and Kemba Walker chipped in with 19 and 17 points respectively. But the night belonged to Tatum who was the first Celtics player since Larry Bird to hit the 40 point mark in 30 or less minutes. Pretty good company.
The Celtics host the Bulls tomorrow night.
