Brown, Tatum, and Brogdon lead Celtics back on the winning track vs Wizards, 112-94
The Celtics improved to 4-2 with a decisive win over the Wizards Sunday evening at the TD Garden. Jaylen Brown (24), Jayson Tatum (23), and Malcolm Brogdon (23) combined for 70 of the Celtics 112 points.
Tatum's St. Louis friend Bradley Beal struggled mightily for the Wizards shooting a very poor 4-16 from the field.
