BOSTON — Already down three of their starters to begin the game, the Celtics were thrown another wrench at halftime.
Jaylen Brown collided with an errant elbow from Jayson Tatum, and was knocked out of the game, a brutal blow against Joel Embiid and the surging 76ers.
But these Celtics seem focused on heading into the All-Star break on a high note. Not even losing nearly their entire starting lineup deterred them.
