The Celtics are one of two teams that have most increased their average defensive pickup point on ball-handlers from last season to this year
Applying pressure.

Jaylen Brown (hamstring) is probable for tomorrow’s game against the Cavaliers
He’s been questionable for the past two games, so maybe a signing of progress (?)
Writing an article on Josh Minott's emergence, and decided to look into where he got the nickname of "The Lawn Mower"
Never saw this quote before—he really is electric
"It's like a lawn mower, once I got goin, just kept goin... I am energy. I feel like the embodiment of it."
Josh Minott’s +42 last night cracked the top 10 in Celtics franchise history for single-game plus/minus
Here are the other eight players he joins at +42 or better:
Daniel Theis
Jayson Tatum
Ray Allen
Derrick White
Marcus Smart
Jared Sullinger
Robert Williams
Jeff Green
Jaylen Brown has had enough of the hairline jokes 💀
Looks like he’s getting a haircut when he streams tonight at 7 PM
“Chat im cooked” 😭
Josh Minott in his first career start:
15 PTS (career-high)
9 REB
6-9 FG
1 BLK
1 STL
🤯 +42
The Lawnmower is the latest Brad Stevens masterclass
Let Ant cook! 🔥
Anfernee Simons tonight:
☘️25 PTS
☘️ 9-17 FG
☘️ 6-13 3PT
Finally got to see him let loose offensively and it’s official: he’s a certified bucket
Final: Celtics 122, Pelicans 90
Celtics who played their best game of the season tonight:
Payton Pritchard
Anfernee Simons
Neemias Queta
Josh Minott
Luka Garza
Baylor Scheierman
I’d hear an argument for Sam Hauser despite the meh shooting night
GREAT TEAM WIN☘️
