The Golden State Warriors (240) faced their closest call of the season, being taken to double overtime at the TD Garden by the Boston Celtics (13 - 10). The Warriors' historic win streak now stands at 28 games, the second longest of all time. Despite the absence of starters Klay Thompson (ankle) and Harrison Barnes (ankle), the Warriors were able to get the win, mainly by riding the elite play of stars Steph Curry and Draymond Green. Curry continued to score at a historic pace, dropping in six threes en route to 38 points. Despite the big numbers, the All-Star shot just 9 - of - 27 on the night, held back by the stellar defense of Boston's Avery Bradley and Evan Turner. Draymond Green was the true star of the show, posting 24 points, 11 rebounds, eight assists, five rebounds, and five steals. Green's night was a historic one, as it marked the league's first 5x5 since Nicolas Batum acheived the feat in 2012. Boston, meanwhile, came less than a minute from being the first team to hand a loss to Golden State so far this season. Center Kelly Olynyk had the hot hand for the Celtics, leading the team with 28 points. Coach Brad Stevens chose to rely heavily on the play of Olynyk, Evan Turner, and Jae Crowder, throughout the game and overtime. Point guard Isaiah Thomas, meanwhile, struggled in the game's overtime periods, missing two potentially game - winning shots. The Celtics may not have gotten the win, but they will certainly have momentum after forcing double OT against a historic team. The team's next contest will be against Charlotte on Saturday. The Warriors, meanwhile, will look to defend their undefeated record as they travel to Milwaukee in the second half of a back - to - back.
