The Boston Celtics (30 - 36) dominated the Philadelphia 76ers (15 - 52) in a 108 - 89 victory on Monday in Boston. All five Celtics' starters scored in double figures, as Boston has now won five games in a row and seven of their last eight. They were led by Tyler Zeller, who scored a season - high 26 points on 11 - of - 15 shooting and grabbed five rebounds in 28 minutes. Zeller has now scored 44 points on 19 - of - 25 shooting in his last two outings. Avery Bradley posted a double - double for the Celtics, recording 20 points on 8 - of - 14 shooting and 10 rebounds, to go along with six assists in 35 minutes. Marcus Smart (11) and Evan Turner (10) round out the Boston starters in double figures, while Luigi Datome and Jae Crowder each scored 10 points off the bench. The Celtics' recent success has come even without Isaiah Thomas (back), who's missed the last four games. The win brings Boston up to seventh place in the Eastern Conference standings, owning tiebreakers over both Indiana and Charlotte with just 16 games left on the schedule. The 76ers were led by Nerlens Noel in the losing effort, who posted 18 points on 7 - of - 15 shooting and seven rebounds. Despite Philadelphia's constant struggles, Noel has played great as of late, posting three double - doubles in his last six games. On the other end of the spectrum, Jason Richardson had yet another poor shooting day, scoring just two points on 1 - of - 7 shooting, as he has failed to reach double - digit scoring in his last three outings. Starters Hollis Thompson (13), Isaiah Canaan (11) and Luc Richard Mbah a Moute (10) all scored in double figures, while Ish Smith scored 16 points on 7 - of - 13 shooting in 27 minutes off the bench. The 76ers recorded just 20 assists to 16 turnovers and continue to boast one of the worst records in the NBA. Up next, Boston will travel to Oklahoma City on Wednesday to take on the Thunder, while Philadelphia heads home to go up against the Pistons on Wednesday.
