BJ Boston lights up Celtics and dedicates performance to best friend Terrence Clarke

Brandon ‘BJ’ Boston Jr. slipped on NBA Draft night despite being a top-10 recruit coming out of Kentucky. Boston Jr. was taken by the Los Angeles Clippers in Round 2 and had been assigned to their G-League affiliate for much of this season.
