The usual stars are Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, but the contributions of Jrue Holiday, Al Horford and Derrick White may have been just as influential when it came to winning the NBA title last year. It doesn&#8217;t stop there, as the Celtics get amazing contributions from bench players like Payton Pritchard and Sam Hauser.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Payton Pritchard has set an NBA record for most 3-pointers made off the bench in a single season!<\/p>\n<p>\ud83c\udfaf 219 and counting!<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/mEV1AkZkdN\">pic.twitter.com\/mEV1AkZkdN<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; ClutchPoints (@ClutchPoints) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ClutchPoints\/status\/1901062686697550184?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 16, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Pritchard was a key contributor for the Celtics as they defeated the Brooklyn Nets 115-113 Saturday night.

He connected on 5 of 8 shots from beyond the arc in the win over the Nets.<\/p>\n<p>Pritchard has a big advantage over any of the other bench players in the NBA. Pritchard now has 220 for the season, followed by Malik Beasley of the Detroit Pistons who is second with 198. Gary Trent Jr. of the Milwaukee Bucks is third with 124 three-pointers.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Celtics bounce back with second straight win after loss to Oklahoma City<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The Celtics have rebounded from their 118-112 home loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder with consecutive victories over the Miami Heat and the Nets.<\/p>\n<p>Their 3-point shooting against the Thunder was an issue as they made just 20 of 63 shots from beyond the arc.
