Boston Celtics guards Payton Pritchard and Derrick White made history Wednesday night. The duo combined for 84 points and became the first Celtics teammates to score 40 points each in the same game.
Pritchard made 10 three-pointers and scored 43 points on the night, while White sank nine threes and had 41 points of his own. Boston was without Jayson Tatum, Kristaps Porzingis and Jrue Holiday Wednesday, making Pritchard and White's offensive explosion both timely and needed. The Celtics did have Jaylen Brown on the court, though, who added 18 points, eight assists and eight rebounds in the 128-118 home win over the Portland Trail Blazers.
