After another night in which he cited the team’s lack of experience as the leading reason for its ups and downs, Celtics point guard Kyrie Irving said Monday he will no longer question his teammates publicly.
“Sometimes I may come off and say things — never to question my teammates in public like that ever again,” Irving told reporters. “I just want to win so bad.”
Irving had, yet again, called out the group for not living up to its full potential following Boston’s 105-103 loss to the Orlando Magic on Saturday. With 2.7 seconds remaining against the Magic, forward Gordon Hayward inbounded the ball to Jayson Tatum, who hoisted a 21-footer that bounced off the rim as time expired.
