Celtics vs. Raptors score: Live updates as Boston and Toronto square off in the NBA bubble

Toronto has been the story of the Disney bubble so far, but after three very impressive performances, they’re finally getting a taste of their own medicine. They trail the Boston Celtics 52-37 at halftime thanks to Boston’s remarkable defensive performance thus far. They’ve held Toronto to only 33.3 percent shooting from the field and 16.7 percent on 3-pointers. The Raptors have locked down every team they’ve played in Orlando. Now the Celtics are showing them how it feels. 

Unlike Toronto, Boston has been able to find offense by hitting the tough shots the Raptors allow. Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown have given them 19 total points on somewhat efficient shooting, more than enough for this rock fight, but the clutch shotmaking of Daniel Theis has been the difference for Boston offensively. When he’s calmly sinking corner 3’s, they’re very hard to beat. Follow along with us here for live news, updates and analysis on the second half.
