Payton Pritchard · Payton Pritchard has emerged as a crucial piece in Boston's championship puzzle, providing instant offense and clutch shooting whenever called upon. With Jaylen Brown sidelined, Pritchard seized the opportunity to lead the Celtics' attack against Sacramento at TD Garden. Late in the second quarter, he catches the ball beyond the arc and methodically creates space with his signature stepback before launching a 26-footer that splashes through the rim. His stellar 29-point, eight-assist performance powered Boston to a commanding 112-93 win over the Kings. · State of Mint
