Just under two months ago, I wrote an article about how the ’ bench wasn’t doing a whole lot. It was early, but shots weren’t falling, and the starters were being relied on for a bulk of Boston’s scoring.
Fast forward 24 games and things have changed quite a bit.
Boston’s starters are still a force to be reckoned with, but now they’re getting some serious contributions from the bench — particularly Sam Hauser and Payton Pritchard.
The reserve duo has put together an impressive season so far, despite digging themselves quite the hole at the beginning.
