With a league-best 57-14 record, Boston Celtics swingman Sam Hauser is always looking for opportunities to stay challenged. With rest and recovery a priority at the end of the regular season, the Stay Ready group is poised for a colossal role down the stretch.
The former Virginia Cavalier finished with 23 points, on 7-8 three-point shooting in the Celtics 124-113 victory over the Bulls. For Boston, it didn’t matter if Kristaps Porzingis, Jrue Holiday, and Jaylen Brown were unable to suit up. It’s the next-man-up mentality, and Hauser took advantage of the starting nod.
