If you went to bed early, here's what you missed: the Celtics beat the 76ers 123-101 in Philadelphia on Tuesday night. Paul George, who came to Boston in the Jaylen Brown trade, scored 36 points and hit six 3-pointers in his return. Jayson Tatum added 21.

All eyes were on Tatum and Brown, and George stole the show. Boston led 62-51 at halftime, the Sixers tied it 76-76 while Brown sat in foul trouble, and the Celtics then went on a 29-6 run after a Joe Mazzulla timeout.

  • Brown: 26 minutes, a team-worst minus-27, four turnovers
  • Pritchard: 18 points and five assists off the bench
  • Celtics: ninth win in their last 10 games

Paul George led all scorers with 36 points

After the starting lineups were introduced, Tatum approached Brown at midcourt, and Brown appeared to have no interest in reciprocating. Brown said afterward:

“But credit to Jayson, he played well tonight. Credit to the Celtics, they executed.”

The teams meet three more times this season, including Brown's return to TD Garden on Jan. 21.

The Buy

The Wrap

Ask a Northeastern student about their most frequented spots on campus, and Wollaston's Market, better known as Wolly's, is bound to be on the list. The family-owned shop opened in Quincy in 1987 and added a South End store in 1993. It now lives only on Northeastern's Boston campus, with two locations and more than 50 deli menu options. Not bad for a Quincy transplant.
