Boston responded by blowing out Toronto 125-71, their biggest win of the season. <\/p>\n<p id=\"TOJrBw\">The Celtics finished with six players in double digits led by Jayson Tatum who dropped 23 points and 8 rebounds on 6-13 shooting (4-9 from three).  Payton Pritchard scored 19 points off the bench and Derrick White finished with 16 points and 4 blocks.

While Toronto had just as bad of a start, Boston found their groove, going on an 8-0 run courtesy of Derrick White and Jrue Holiday. <\/p>\n<p id=\"Yiwj0X\">Boston offense run continued to roll, as they finished the first quarter on a 21-6 run to open up a 23-12 lead on Toronto.  Derrick White was huge as he dropped 10 points on 4-5 shooting (2-2 from three) including a buzzer beating floater.  White also recorded his 400th career block, one of his two in the quarter. The Celtics defense was elite, holding Toronto to 5-23 shooting and 0-12 from three. <\/p>\n<div id=\"SXwiyu\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-dnt=\"true\" align=\"center\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">D-White said D N&#8217;T <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/saMDayfvPW\">pic.twitter.com\/saMDayfvPW<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Boston Celtics (@celtics) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/celtics\/status\/1874193382743875613?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 31, 2024<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p id=\"yeYRTm\">The start of the second quarter was much like the end of the first for both teams with the Celtics offense continued to dominate and the Raptors couldn\u2019t hit water if they fell out of a boat in the middle of the ocean.  <\/p>\n<p id=\"LnM6rs\">After missing their first 14 threes, the Raptors hit two back to back as Dorchester native Bruce Brown was able to help Toronto get back in the game.

Jayson Tatum led the third quarter explosion with 18 points on 4-6 shooting (4-5 from three) and an absurd 99.1% true shooting. <\/p>\n<p id=\"20hpHj\">Boston as a whole completely flipped the switch when it came to shooting in this quarter, going 14-19 (73.7%) and 10-12 (83.3%) from three.
