Boston Dennis Schröder and the Boston Celtics have been bid farewell after a massive bankruptcy with boos from the local TD Garden. Rookie Franz Wagner, on the other hand, convinced as the top scorer in Orlando Magic, which was also weak.
The record champions of the North American professional basketball league NBA lost their second game of the season against the Toronto Raptors 83: 115. Schröder (28) came off the bench and only recorded four points and four assists with four ball losses. The German international moved to the east coast in the summer.

The hall in Boston was fully occupied for the first time in 593 days, but many of the 19,156 spectators had left well before the final siren. The rest vented his displeasure. “The people here know about basketball. They were honest,” said Celtics guard Josh Richardson.

The Wagner brothers Franz and Moritz received a similar slap with the Orlando Magic at 96: 121 against the New York Knicks. Rookie Franz Wagner (20) was still convincing and with 16 points was the most successful point collector of his weak team. Moritz Wagner (24) received significantly less playing time and scored six points. The Magic had already lost their opening game significantly.

Schröder and the Wagners are in “good” company with the botched start to the season. The star ensemble of the Los Angeles Lakers is also still waiting for their first victory. The team around the exceptional players LeBron James (25 points) and Anthony Davis (22 points) lost to the Phoenix Suns 105: 115. Outstanding among the guests: Chris Paul with 23 points and 14 assists. As the first player in NBA history, the 36-year-old has now collected more than 20,000 points and 10,000 assists.

Superstar Kevin Durant, who led the Brooklyn Nets to their first win of the season at the Philadelphia 76ers, was also strong. The Olympic champion from Tokyo achieved a triple-double at 114: 109: 29 points, 15 rebounds and twelve assists. Without the still banned vaccination skeptic Kyrie Irving, James Harden (20 points) and LaMarcus Aldridge (23 points) also convinced.
