The stars combined for 83 points and continued to remind the rest of the league just how difficult it will be to go through them.

The Boston Celtics held a 14-point lead over the Cleveland Cavaliers in the third quarter when Jaylen Brown was called for a loose ball foul as he and Darius Garland went after the ball. The foul was Brown's fourth of the game, and caused Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla to pull Brown out of the game to ensure he did not foul out.

Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown is coming off a 37-point performance in a 123-116 loss to the top-seeded Cleveland Cavaliers Friday night. This came as Brown’s highest-scoring output since Dec. 27 when scored 44 against the Indiana Pacers .
