Tatum scores 32; Celtics survive Beal’s great performance

Jayson Tatum scored 32 points, while Jaylen Brown added 27 and grabbed 13 rebounds, in a game that the Boston Celtics beat the Washington Wizards 116-107 on Friday night.

The Celtics overcame another great performance from Bradley Beal to round out their fourth straight win.

Beal had 41 points and eight rebounds, a game after tying the franchise record with 60 points against the 76ers.

Tatum made 14 of 27 shots to help the cause of the decimated Celtics, who played without Tristan Thompson, Grant Williams and Robert Williams. That trio was out for the next seven days, in compliance with the health and safety protocol in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Rui Hachimura had 17 points, while Davis Bertans had 13 for the Wizards, who fell to a 2-7 record.
