Live updates: Celtics, Wizards facing off in D.C.
The Boston Celtics are on the road after starting their title defense with an emphatic Opening Night win over the New York Knicks.
Their first road game comes against the Washington Wizards, who they defeated in all four of their meetings last season. C’s star Jayson Tatum averaged 32.7 points in his three games played against Washington during the 2023-24 campaign.
Boston ruled out one of its top bench scorers Sam Hauser due to low back pain. Hauser had 10 points and five rebounds in Tuesday’s win over New York.
