The Celtics struggled through the middle parts of their schedule, but their play has clearly improved over the past 10 games before the All-Star break.

Jayson Tatum had 32 points, 14 rebounds and seven assists to lead the Boston Celtics to a 116-103 victory over the visiting San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday night.

The return of Porzingis was a bit rocky at first, which is not all that odd given how late in the season he first took the court. Now, he appears to be very close to at the peak of his powers -- and hopefully will stay that way given the impact he has had on Boston's play.
