Boston Celtics made sure to not lose again after leading by 20+ points, recovering from a loss against Cleveland Cavaliers to overcome a second-half rally by Denver Nuggets in the NBA on Sunday.
Nikola Jokic finished one assist away from a triple double, but his efforts were in vain as the Celtics stayed locked in for a 110-103 win at the TD Garden.
Having led the Cavs by 22 only to end up losing, Celtics led the Nuggets by as much as 20 during the second quarter and kept up a disciplined display to outlast the Nuggets.
