Behind the Numbers: Pelicans at Celtics (1/17/22)

A look at three key numbers related to Monday’s game at TD Garden between New Orleans and Boston (11:30 a.m. Central, Bally Sports New Orleans, ESPN Radio New Orleans 100.3 FM):

7.7: Brandon Ingram assist average over the past three games, with the 2020 All-Star forward dishing out nine, six and eight in matchups vs. Minnesota, the Clippers and Brooklyn, respectively. His 23 assists over a three-game span is Ingram’s most this season, as well as his top three-game assist total since the 2019-20 season, when he had a 25-assist stretch in January. The 24-year-old’s last five games have been dominant from an offensive perspective, because in addition to his increased playmaking, Ingram is also averaging 26.
