The Boston Celtics fell to the defending NBA champs 101 – 89 as their shooting failed them against the Milwaukee Bucks, the Celtics shooting just 36% from beyond the arc and a surprising 33% from the floor overall. Kept off balance by the Bucks’ physical defense, Milwaukee seemed to affect Boston’s ability to hit shots even when they were open.
The Celtics struggled offensively, with only star forward Jayson Tatum breaking the 20-point barrier, putting up 21 points, 6 rebounds, and 6 assists, with forward Jaylen Brown adding 12 points and 9 boards, big man Al Horford chipping in 12 points and 10 rebounds. Reserve guard Derrick White added10 points off of the bench.
