Fil-Am rising star Jalen Green and the Houston Rockets withstand a 43-point bomb from Jaylen Brown to repulse the favored Boston Celtics.
Jalen Green scored a team-high 28 points while rookie Jabari Smith Jr. posted his third consecutive 20-point, 10-rebound game as the Houston Rockets held on for a 111-109 victory over the visiting Boston Celtics on Monday .
After Jaylen Brown, who scored a season-high 43 points for the Celtics, converted a layup, Smith made one of his two free throws and the Rockets survived when Jayson Tatum missed a driving layup at the buzzer. What followed was a parade to the free-throw line for the Celtics, who closed to within 106-105 with 1:44 remaining on a Marcus Smart free throw.
Tatum posted 22 points, eight rebounds and six assists, while Malcolm Brogdon tallied 20 points off the bench.
