Terry Rozier Struggles Against Utah
Boston Celtics point guard Terry Rozier had a second consecutive poor shooting night on Wednesday, making only four of his 15 field goal attempts, going 3-for-8 from downtown. He's now gone 8-for-31 (25.8 percent) in the last two games, which clearly isn't good enough, but the Celtics are winning and Rozier's minutes are safe as […]
Jayson Tatum Does It All For Celtics In Narrow Win
Boston Celtics small forward Jayson Tatum was everywhere in Wednesday's 97-94 win over Utah, posting 16 points, three assists, two steals and two blocks in 32 minutes.
