The Boston Celtics defeated the Brooklyn Nets in their first meeting of the season 103-92 in Brooklyn on Sunday.

Jaylen Brown led the way with 34 points (scored 20 in the first quarter) while Jayson Tatum added another 29. It was a great statement game for Boston’s franchise pillars.

There was a very sweet moment in this game for all Celtics fans and it was a beautiful sight to see. It was early in the second quarter when Payton Pritchard went 1vs1 with Kyrie Irving.

It ended with Pritchard putting the spin-cycle on Irving as he was able to put up a shot. It was amazing. Here’s the video below.
