Boston Celtics' Three-Point Barrage Overwhelms Charlotte Hornets at TD Garden

The Boston Celtics showcased their dominance with a commanding 130-94 victory over the Charlotte Hornets at TD Garden. This win improved the Celtics' record to 60-21, while the Hornets fell to 19-62. The game was marked by a strong second-half performance from Boston, where they outscored Charlotte significantly in both the third and fourth quarters.

Celtics' Offensive Firepower

The home team displayed an impressive offensive performance, shooting 52 percent from the field and hitting 45 percent of their three-point attempts. Payton Pritchard led the charge with an efficient scoring display, contributing 22 points on an impressive 82 percent shooting accuracy. Derrick White also played a crucial role with his all-around game, adding 19 points and dishing out seven assists while blocking four shots.

Boston's bench was instrumental in maintaining pressure on Charlotte throughout the game. The reserves contributed significantly to Boston's total score, amassing a combined total of 69 points. Sam Hauser stood out among them with his sharp shooting from beyond the arc, scoring 20 points at a remarkable efficiency rate.

Hornets Struggle Against Stifling Defense

On the other side of the court, Charlotte struggled against Boston's stifling defense which limited them to just under 40 percent shooting overall. Despite LaMelo Ball's efforts in orchestrating plays for his teammates leading to some fast-break opportunities that resulted in four fast break points for Charlotte, it wasn't enough to overcome their challenges on offense.

The Hornets managed only six points off turnovers compared to Boston’s dominant tally of thirty-one such points—a testament not only towards defensive prowess but also effective transition play by Celtics players who capitalized effectively upon each opportunity presented during this encounter between these two teams.
