He ended going 9-19 from three point range. Seven of his threes came in the third quarter.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking post-game, coach Joe Mazzulla explained that he enjoyed seeing Sam Hauser\u2019s confidence.<\/p>\n<p>Even more so, he loved the confidence the Celtics teammates had in Hauser too, that they kept going to him despite his early misses.<\/p>\n<p>Mazzulla was quoted via NBA media: \u201cOnce you see a couple go in, the rim gets a little bit wider for a shooter. You just try to keep letting it fly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s no shot that he shoots that we think is a bad shot. So I think it was great that even when he was 1-for-7, the team was still looking to find him, and I thought he was great in that third quarter.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut to me, I think he\u2019s a straight shooter. He understands his work ethic, he does the same process every day, whether he does this or whether he goes 1-for-7.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-sam-hauser-career-best\">Sam Hauser career best<\/h2>\n<p>An undrafted pick-up in 2021, Sam Hauser just enjoyed the best game of his career with 33 points.<\/p>\n<p>It is almost a year exactly since his previous best. Hauser scored 30 points on March 17 2024 against the Washington Wizards.<\/p>\n<p>His best game of the 2024-25 season up until this one was a 20-point haul against the Pistons back in December.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What a performance from Sam Hauser!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":42160,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-42159","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nba"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
