Evan Fournier Misses Only Three Shots During 31-Point Effort
4 years agoOrlando Magic shooting guard Evan Fournier was red-hot in Friday's shocking win over Brooklyn, shooting 10-for-13 from the field and 5-for-6 at the line on his way to a season-high 31 points. Two of his misses came from downtown on eight attempts. Fournier also had three rebounds and a pair of assists in 35 minutes. Health issues have limited the French guard to just three outings this month, but he's been in great form by averaging 26.7 points. The Celtics will try to slow him down next on Sunday. It's a decent matchup for Fournier, as he will go up against a team that seems to lack confidence and whose defense has slipped badly. Boston allows 110.7 points per 100 possessions, which puts them tied with Dallas for the seventh-least efficient defense in the league.
