The Boston Celtics secured a 138-129 NBA Cup win over the Chicago Bulls on Friday, Nov. 29. Both teams showcased some high-level offense and questionable defense during the contest. However, an exceptional fourth quarter from Payton Pritchard helped Joe Mazzulla's team overcome their opponent.

Boston, Chicago, and Atlanta are all 2-1 in the Eastern Conference Group C standings. Cleveland is 1-1 and Washington is 0-3. The Bulls will be the Group C champion if they beat the Celtics and the Hawks beat the Cavaliers. Chicago owns the tiebreaker over Atlanta based on its head-to-head victory.

The Celtics held off a second-half rally to show the Cavaliers who's the boss in the Eastern Conference. It was the perfect game for a Thanksgiving nap. Medrick Burnett Jr. was hospitalized for nearly a month after being injured in a head-to-head collision.
