BOSTON -- Having dealt with one of the NBA's prime young big men in Friday night's win, the Boston Celtics see another one Saturday night when Anthony Davis and the New Orleans Pelicans visit TD Garden.
Philadelphia's Joel Embiid, just getting his NBA feet wet after his battles with injuries, was outstanding in just under 26 minutes Friday night. He scored 23 points and grabbing eight rebounds in the 110-106 loss to the Celtics.
Davis is another story entirely. He's already a star and comes to town averaging 28.
