NBA -- With Irving out, Celtics rally past Hornets, 90-87


PhilBoxing.com




BOSTON ? ​With Kyrie Irving knocked out of the game with a facial injury, the Boston Celtics rallied from an 18-point deficit to stun the Charlotte Hornets, 90-87, at the TD Garden.

​Irving went down ​early in the opening quarter after getting hit by an inadvertent elbow from teammate Aron Baynes. ​The All-Star point guard was held scoreless and did not return.

​Jayson Tatum led the Cetlics with 16 markers. Marcus Morried added 14 points while rookie Jaylen Brown had a solid triple-double of 10 points and 13 boards to help Boston win 11 straight. The Celtics kept their hold of the best record in the league with an 11-2 card.​

​The Hornets erected a 46-28 ​second quarter bubble, by knocking down high percentage shots in the perimeter. Kemba Walker and Frank Kaminsky, who combined for 34 points, orchestrated Charlotte's early onslaught. ​

​But the Celtics slowly chipped away at the deficit before finally taking the lead at 80-79 with 5:29 to go in the final frame. Reserve guard Terry Rozier​, who finished with 15 points and 7 dimes,​ ​sealed the deal with ​a pair of free throws for the final score.

The Friday game celebrate Veterans Day and honored the brave men and women in military service.​celebrated ​
