Kyrie Irving's 33 points not enough for Celtics in loss to Clippers
Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving scored 33 points (11-of-21 field goals, 6-of-6 free throws) with 1 rebound, 8 assists, 1 steal, 5 3-pointers, and 4 turnovers in 38.3 minutes of Wednesday's 129-119 win over the Los Angeles Clippers.
Irving led the contest in points and made 5-of-7 from beyond the arc, but it wasn't enough to overcome another poor team defensive effort from the Celtics. They've lost three straight heading into the All-Star break.
Kyrie scored 45.2 FanDuel points on Wednesday, compared to his average of 37.7 FanDuel points per game for the season.
