Dominant on Opening Night
Tatum showed no signs of taking his foot off the gas after being crowned an NBA champion last season. The superstar forward's efficient shooting from downtown helped the Celtics tie an NBA record for the most three-pointers made as a team in a single game with 29. Tatum also showed off his playmaking ability, as he racked up double-digit assists only once in the entire 2023-24 regular season.

Coming off bench Opening Night
Pritchard entered the starting lineup often during the preseason, though Jrue Holiday will reclaim his starting spot Opening Night. Pritchard will likely play a significant role off the bench, but he will have to compete for playing time with Sam Hauser and Jaden Springer on the wing.

Cleared for Opening Night
As expected, Hauser will be good to go for the regular-season opener after resting during the preseason finale. The sharpshooter was a key piece of Boston's bench last year, making 42.4 percent of his 5.9 three-point attempts per game.
