Brown, White lead Celtics’ 3-point onslaught, powering Boston to 120-95 Game 1 win over Cavaliers
BOSTON (AP) — When Jaylen Brown or Jayson Tatum have it going, it usually means good things for the Boston Celtics.
This postseason, it’s also been opening up the floor —- and the 3-point line —- for Derrick White. That’s added a new layer to a team that was already the one to beat in the East.
Brown scored 32 points, White made seven 3-pointers and added 25, and the Celtics powered past the Cleveland Cavaliers 120-95 on Tuesday night in Game 1 of their second-round playoff series.
Tatum finished with 18 points and 11 rebounds to help the Celtics pull away in the second half.
