The Boston Celtics are Still Looking for Bench Production

For the Boston Celtics, a majority of their production thus far into the 2019-20 season has come from the team’s starting lineup. With guys like Kemba Walker, Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum, Gordon Hayward/ Marcus Smart, and Daniel Theis, there’s no wonder the unit has been so menacing.

Specifically, the starters scored 76 of the 99 points accumulated during Monday night’s victory over the Phoenix Suns. And while we can all boast about how great Boston’s starting lineup has been during their first 13 games of the season, a statistic like this is not one that will lead to sustainable success.
