LOS ANGELES: The Boston Celtics defeated the Hawks 126-101 on Wednesday, giving them their eighth straight NBA victory.
Jaylen Brown led the Celtics in scoring 22 points, while teammate All-Star Jayson Tatum contributed 19. Still, according to Brown, the difference was ultimately determined by the 44 points scored by the Boston reserves.
Brown said they had a good team from “top to bottom.”
