April 10, 2026 was a downpour. The Celtics buried 29 three-pointers — tying the NBA single-game record — in a 144–118 demolition of the Pelicans, their 10th straight win.

Make It Rain ☔

Sam Hauser led the barrage with eight threes. The distribution was absurd — eight different Celtics hit two or more from deep:

  • Hauser (8) · Pritchard (5) · Vucevic & White (3) · Brown, Walsh, González & Scheierman (2)
  • And the cherry on top: Neemias Queta drained the first three-pointer of his career.

Jaylen Brown's Big Year

Brown is putting together a career campaign — 28.8 PPG (4th in the NBA), 7 RPG, 5.2 APG. Bona-fide All-Star, and essential to everything Boston does.

Tatum Heating Up

Back from injury, JT looks the part. Over his last ten: 22.4 PPG, 10.9 RPG, 6.1 APG, including a triple-double. With the fourth-best record in the league behind only the Thunder, Spurs and Pistons, Boston is rolling toward the postseason.
