Dominant Defense

The Celtics' victory was largely due to their outstanding defense. They held the Mavericks to just 35% shooting from the field, including 22% from three-point range. Kristaps Porziņģis led the Mavericks with 24 points, but he was the only Dallas player to score more than 15 points.

Luka Dončić's Struggles

Holiday Shines

In Dončić's absence, Jrue Holiday stepped up for the Celtics. He scored 22 points, dished out 7 assists, and had 5 steals. He was a major factor in the Celtics' win.
