The win extends their lead atop the NBA rankings to 30-9. They’re also 19-0 at home, improving on what is already the franchise’s finest start to a season at home.

But, as Joe Mazzulla said after the game, it’s critical that the Celtics don’t get too high after a win or too down after a loss. That means taking what they can from Saturday’s game and focusing their attention on Monday’s game against the Toronto Raptors.

However, Jaylen Brown might not be in the lineup that night in Boston. He is listed as questionable for the team’s game north of the border due to right knee hyperextension, which he suffered in Saturday’s triumph.

Despite this, he finished with a game-high 32 points, six rebounds, two assists, two steals, and two blocks.
