Frontcourt depth was one of the biggest concerns for the Celtics heading into their 2016 - 17 season . And while for the most part , the play behind starer Al Horford has been inconsistent at best , Kelly Olynyk is showing that he can be a legitimate reserve option for Boston with his play over the last three games . In Monday 's outing , Olynyk played 29 minutes off the bench and scored 15 points on 6 - of - 10 shooting from the field to go along with seven rebounds . Now , over the course of Boston 's current three - game win streak , Olynyk has averaged 16 points and 7 rebounds over 26 minutes per game while shooting an impressive 6 - of - 12 ( 50 percent ) from behind the arc and 19 - of - 30 ( 63 percent ) from the field overall . There have been trade rumors brewing all season surrounding Boston and another big man , but Olynyk is doing his best to put those to rest . The Boston Celtics defeated the Dallas Mavericks 111 - 98 Monday at American Airlines Center . The Celtics ( 36 - 19 ) held a comfortable 11 - points lead headed into halftime and looked to be well on their way to their third straight victory . However , a run in the third quarter from the Mavericks ( 22 - 32 ) brought them to within one and made it a game . But that competitiveness lasted just 12 minutes , as Boston turned it back on in the final period , especially on defense , as they held Dallas to just 16 points . Isaiah Thomas led the way in the end for the Celtics , scoring a game - high 29 points and dishing out eight assists in 34 minutes . But the most important performance of the night came from starting shooting guard Marcus Smart , as he continues to play some of the best basketball of his young career . He finished with 19 points on on 6 - of - 11 shooting , three rebounds , three assists and two steals in 35 minutes . Boston has now won nine of their last 10 games . As for the Mavericks ( 22 - 33 ) , the loss ends a brief two - game winning streak for the team . In the loss , however , they received another hot shooting performance from Yogi Ferrell , who has officially played his way into being a regular in Dallas ' rotation , even with the presence of starter Deron Williams . Ferrell finished with 20 points on 8 - of - 11 shooting from the field and five assists in 32 minutes off the bench . Ferrell 's shooting stroke was n't particularly contagious , however , as the team managed to shoot just 46 percent from the field in the end . On top of that , the five reserves other than Ferrell that saw the court Monday combine for just 11 points in the losing effort . Up next , the Celtics will return home Wednesday to take on the 76ers , while the Mavericks will head to Detroit on Wednesday to take on the Pistons .
