After shaking Karl Anthony-Towns last night, Kelly Olynyk is back in the highlights tonight with a putback slam. Jared Sullinger missed a three pointer, and as Marvin Williams went up to grab the rebound, he was surprised by Olynyk who jumped from behind him and threw down a huge slam on him.
Olynyk led the Celtics to victory tonight with a 20 point game on 7 for 10 shooting and grabbed 9 rebounds. Jae Crowder had 19 points and 12 rebounds, and Avery Bradley and Isaiah Thomas both had 18 points. The Celtics spread the ball around very well tonight.
The Hornets lost, but rookie center Frank Kaminsky had 23 points off of the bench, including 2 threes. Each of the starters had at least a -12 +/-, which really didn’t help the team. Nicolas Batum had the most points of any of the starters, scoring 17 points in 39 minutes.
