The Celtics are still undefeated at home (they’ve won 17 straight regular-season games at TD Garden going back to March), but they needed to win on the road to make it to Las Vegas, and they couldn’t get it done. That stretch includes three of their four games against Dallas, who they’ll visit on Thursday. Naz Reid was feeling a little saucy against the Spurs on Wednesday, taking a team-high 18 shots in 29 minutes, with the highlight being an in-and-out hesi that flummoxed Victor Wembanyama late in the first quarter.Īfter four straight games against bad teams, the Wolves will now play their next 16 against teams that are currently over. Nine different Wolves have scored in double-figures in at least one of their three December games.And they’re doing that with one of their best defenders (Jaden McDaniels) having played more than five minutes in only nine of their 21 games. They rank first in opponent field goal percentage in the paint (51.2%) and second in opponent effective field goal percentage on shots from outside the paint (47.4%). That would be tied with the 2019-20 Bucks for the best differential in the last 16 seasons (since the 2007-08 Celtics).
