Time can heal, and it appears to have done that for the Boston Celtics. At least it did on Friday night. The Celtics used a big second quarter and a fourth-quarter surge to create some separation between themselves and the Detroit Pistons, ultimately winning Friday’s game at Little Caesars Arena 110-98.

However, the Saints only gave him four carries, which he turned into 14 yards during the first half. But that wasn’t the part that got all the attention.
