Boston Celtics scorch Miami Heat: 3 noteworthy performances
Kemba Walker dazzles
When Kemba Walker goes on a roll, he is hard to stop.
In Wednesday night’s 112-93 victory over the Miami Heat, the Boston Celtics star guard caught fire with not only his shooting, but his passing as well as he finished the night with 28 points and 7 assists including this beauty to Jaylen Brown on the fast break:
Along with knocking down buckets and dropping dimes, Walker was active on the defensive end as well. He came up with two steals and a block shot in an overall effort the team didn’t see from another star point guard who shall remain nameless a season ago.
In fact, when Kemba Walker is on his game, it is his ability to get the other players on the court involved that really stands out and why he is such a great fit for this team. It is no coincidence that the Boston Celtics are 13-0 when Walker scores 19 or more points.
Not only is he finding his own offense, but he creates opportunities for Brown and Jayson Tatum as well. With those two young studs flourishing, the addition of Kemba Walker is becoming that more significant.
