BOSTON -- The message from head coach Tyronn Lue to rookie point guard Collin Sexton prior to his first NBA game was short and to the point: Play hard and be yourself.
So far, so good.
Sexton was the Cavaliers' second-leading scorer, pouring in 15 points on 5-of-11 from the field and 2-of-3 from 3-point range, in his debut Tuesday night against the Celtics.
"I thought I did pretty good," Sexton said following the Cavaliers' 102-95 win. "Made some mistakes, but as I continue playing, those mistakes will be less and less. I feel like it was a good night.
