Payton Pritchard Fuels Celtics Comeback with 24 Points Off Bench

Payton Pritchard registered 24 points (8-15 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one assist, one rebound, and one steal over 36 minutes during the Boston Celtics' 98-96 comeback win over the Heat on Friday. He scored 19 of his 24 points in the second half, helping Boston overcome a 22-point deficit. Pritchard has come off the bench in the last three games after starting previously, but has consistently scored at least 24 points in each of those contests, proving unfazed by the role change.
