The Boston Celtics defeated the Charlotte Hornets , 121 - 114 , at Spectrum Center on Saturday afternoon . The Celtics ( 51 - 29 ) checked into Saturday looking to quickly right the ship after losing their previous two games and falling out of the top spot in the Eastern Conference in the process . While they retained a modest chance of still overtaking the Cavaliers , their overriding purpose in notching a win Saturday was to avoid falling further back in the standings , given that the Toronto Raptors were only 2 games behind . Boston was able to accomplish that goal by getting off to a fast start and building a 71 - 54 halftime lead . However , the Hornets ( 36 - 44 ) mounted a furious comeback in the third and eventually took a seven - point lead in the fourth before the Celtics clawed back to tally their 22nd road win of the season . Isaiah Thomas led the way for the Celtics with 32 points , six assists , two rebounds and one steal . Al Horford followed with 16 points , seven assists , four rebounds , one steal and one block .
