Ish Smith’s 27 points help the WashWizards top the celtics
Walker sat out his third game in a row with the flu, and while the Celtics won the previous two — against also-rans Atlanta and Chicago — they couldn’t overcome poor shooting, a slow start and a whole lot of Smith.
That was a rare bright spot for Brown and Boston, though. He scored 23 points but shot 7 for 22, Marcus Smart was 3 for 14, Jayson Tatum was 8 for 20, and Gordon Hayward was 4 for 11, including an air ball on a wide-open 3 attempt with under 90 seconds remaining. And yet, somehow, Washington’s past three victories came against Miami, the No. 3 team in the East in the first season since Dwyane Wade’s retirement, then Denver, who was No. 2 in the West at the time, and now Boston, which never led.
