TORONTO (AP) — The Boston Celtics are on a roll, and Jaylen Brown is leading the charge. With a 24-point performance, Brown helped his team extend their winning streak to six games as they took down the Toronto Raptors 111-101 on Tuesday night.
The Celtics, who have been playing some of their best basketball of the season, were led by Brown's impressive outing. The talented young player was nearly unstoppable, hitting shot after shot and leaving the Raptors defense scrambling to keep up.
But Brown wasn't the only Celtic to have a big night. Derrick White chipped in with 22 points of his own, providing a spark off the bench and helping to propel his team to victory.
The Raptors, who have been struggling to find consistency this season, put up a good fight. But in the end, they were no match for the Celtics' high-powered offense. Despite a strong effort from their own players, the Raptors were unable to keep pace with Boston's scoring machine.
The win was the Celtics' sixth in a row, and it marked their latest victory in a streak that has seen them dominate some of the top teams in the league. With their roster finally healthy and clicking, the Celtics are looking like a force to be reckoned with in the NBA.
For the Raptors, the loss was a disappointing one. After showing flashes of brilliance earlier in the season, the team has struggled to find its footing in recent weeks. With a tough schedule ahead of them, the Raptors will need to regroup and refocus if they hope to make a push for the playoffs.
As for the Celtics, they'll look to keep their winning streak alive when they take on their next opponent. With Jaylen Brown and company playing at such a high level, it's hard to imagine anyone stopping them. The Celtics are on a roll, and they're showing no signs of slowing down anytime soon.
