The Celtics crushed the Grizzlies 131-95 on the second night of a back-to-back. The dominant win gets the Celtics back into the winning column after a tough last-second loss to the Philadelphia 76ers the previous night.
Joe Mazzulla made another roster adjustment to open the game, giving Jordan Walsh his first start of the season after a great showing in Philadelphia. The Celtics opened the game 5/5, immediately setting the tone. The offense for the entire quarter was firing on all cylinders, scoring 34 points on 52/46 shooting splits.
Derrick White made an instant impact, scoring 10 points as well as recording a steal and a block.
