PHOTOS: Boston vs. Washington – Celtics escape Wizards 133-129

Death. Taxes. A narrow Boston Celtics escape from a bad Washington Wizards ball club. These things are all reliable events one can predict with astounding ease, especially the latter in recent seasons. And such was the case in a tilt at TD Garden on Friday night.

In the first half, the Celtics could not get separation, but found their way in the second half, escaping with a 133-129 win despite shooting just 32.4% from deep, instead leaning into a 2-point attack of the rim to stay afloat. Boston struggled to contain the Wiz’ transition game throughout, Washington scoring 38 points in transition to Boston’s 18. But a win is a win, we suppose.

Let’s take a look at some of the best moments captured in images in the Celtics’ 52nd game of the 2023-24 NBA season vs. the Wizards.
