Payton Pritchard And The Celtics Unleash A 3-pointer In Abu Dhabi

It's not serious yet, but the NBA is back on the floor. In Abu Dhabi, it was the Celtics and the Nuggets who kicked off the preseason, with a match… typical of the preseason.

The last two NBA champions thus displayed their expected rotations at the start of the match, before gradually opening their benches. Enough to allow Boston to finally win the game (107-103) behind the 21 points at 6/12 far from Payton Pritchard. The leader, who had earned the nickname “Presason P” thanks to his extreme efficiency during the previous preseason, added 6 assists in 24 minutes on the floor…

Joe Mazzulla's men have also tried their luck 61 times behind the 3-point line, which would constitute a franchise record in the regular season and playoffs for the Massachusetts club.

In the absence of a competitive match, the spectators in Abu Dhabi, including Thierry Henry and Ronaldinho, at least witnessed a close match. On the Nuggets side, we expected the first steps of Russell Westbrook for Denver, and the person concerned made Russell Westbrook, with 12 points at 3/10 shooting, 8 assists and 4 rebounds in 19 minutes on the court.

The two teams play again on Sunday in Abu Dhabi, before returning to the United States to finish their preseason.
