Record-Breaking Performance

By halftime, the hosts had built a staggering 44-point lead, marking the largest halftime lead in franchise history, as reported by ESPN.

Unstoppable Force

The Celtics continued their onslaught in the third quarter, stretching their lead to an astonishing 51 points before eventually resting their starters.
