No Jaylen Brown, no problem: Celtics escape Toronto with 105-96 win over Raptors

The Boston Celtics travelled up north to Toronto to take on the Raptors Monday night without Jaylen Brown and narrowly escaped with a 105-96 win.

It didn’t take long for this game to turn into a block party, as Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis combined for three of them in the opening two minutes.

Holiday, specifically, was everywhere right off the bat on both sides of the ball. In the first six minutes and change, he had racked up eight points, two assists, two rebounds and a steal to go along with his pair of rejections.
