Celtics Tie 3-Point Record in Season Start

The Boston Celtics have started the 2024-25 NBA season impressively, following their NBA championship win, with Jayson Tatum leading the charge. Tatum has been performing at an MVP level, scoring 37 points in their opening game against the New York Knicks and 25 points against the Washington Wizards. The Celtics set an NBA record by tying the most 3-pointers in a game with 29 against the Knicks, an achievement met with humor as Knicks guard Josh Hart joked about drug testing. The season opener also featured a ceremony celebrating the Celtics' 18th championship banner, with Tatum expressing aspirations for a repeat title. Despite the high emotions and achievements, the Celtics are focused on maintaining a day-by-day approach to improve throughout the season.
