While you might not guess it by their record, the Atlanta Hawks have been playing pretty well as of late. And the Boston Celtics found out for themselves what a tough out they can be in their 125-117 home win over the Hawks on Wednesday night.
The Celtics (and all players) were led in scoring by Kristaps Porzingis (31 points), and Derrick White (21 points, 6 rebounds, 7 assists), Jayson Tatum (20 points, 9 boards, 7 assists), Jaylen Brown (15 points, 6 rebounds, as many assists), and Al Horford (14 points, 8 rebounds, as many assists) all had good games for Boston.
Sam Hauser also had 10 points and 5 rebounds off the bench for the Celtics.
NBC Sports Boston’s caught up with Derrick White postgame to talk about his key fourth-quarter explosion and how it relates to his All-Star snub. Check it out above!
