  • Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Strong contribution from bench

    Pritchard finished Saturday's 127-121 loss to Memphis with 22 points (7-12 FG, 6-11 3Pt, 2-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal across 30 minutes.

    Pritchard drilled six three-pointers during the loss, marking his third-highest total in the category this season. Pritchard has often entered the game to prop up a struggling backcourt, but Jrue Holiday's superb line proved that Pritchard's production can shine even when the first unit doesn't need immediate support. Pritchard is having a breakout season, averaging 16.1 points, 3.3 rebounds and 2.9 assists through 24 games.

  • Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Shines off bench in dominant win

    Pritchard produced 25 points (10-17 FG, 5-12 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists, two steals and one block across 33 minutes during Monday's 108-89 win over the Heat.

    Pritchard led the bench in scoring and totaled 20-plus points in his fourth consecutive outing. During this four-game span, he's averaged 24.5 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.3 steals across 31.0 minutes per game off the bench. The Sixth Man of the Year candidate has recorded eight games with more than 20 points over 21 regular-season appearances, and he has provided an irreplaceable spark off the bench thus far. The 26-year-old sharpshooter has also contributed nine outings with more than five made three-pointers, and his efficiency from beyond the arc has been impressive during the 2024-25 campaign.

  • Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Steps up off bench again

    Pritchard ended with 24 points (7-16 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 7-8 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one block across 36 minutes during Sunday's 115-111 loss to Cleveland.

    Pritchard stepped up in a big way off the bench once again for the Celtics, going for 24 points on the heels of a 29-point showing from the second unit in Friday's win over Chicago. The 26-year-old sharpshooter continues to put together a breakout season in 2024-25, averaging a career-high 16.0 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.9 assists, 1.1 steals and 3.7 three-pointers in 27.8 minutes per game while shooting 43.2 percent from deep over 20 contests as Boston's sixth man. Pritchard may have a tendency to run a bit hot and cold at times, but he should remain a strong source of triples for fantasy managers and could see some extra shots if Derrick White (foot) or Jaylen Brown (illness) remains out for Monday's clash with Miami.

  • Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Shines off bench Friday

    Pritchard notched 29 points (10-16 FG, 7-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and one steal over 29 minutes during Friday's 138-129 win over the Bulls.

    Pritchard has been one of the best bench performers this season, and this 29-point outing represented a new season-high mark for him. Pritchard has scored at least 20 points in six different games in 2024-25 and continues to have a career-best season while holding a prominent role on the Celtics' second unit.

    This was Pritchard's fifth game of the season with at least 20 points. He's been a key part of Boston's second-unit offense, and he's had a terrific November with averages of 14.3 points, 3.1 assists, 2.3 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 3.1 three-pointers in 27.2 minutes across 13 appearances.

  • Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Shooting woes from deep in win

    Pritchard recorded eight points (3-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds and three assists over 22 minutes during Sunday's 107-105 win over the Timberwolves.

    Pritchard struggled from outside while delivering his second consecutive matchup with fewer than 10 points. The sharpshooter has cooled down from outside, shooting 7-for-21 from three-point range over his last four games. However, Pritchard has delivered a spark off the bench throughout the season, and he has racked up 10 outings with 15-plus points in 17 regular-season appearances.

  • Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Dealing with thumb sprain

    Pritchard is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Cavaliers due to a left thumb sprain, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.

    Pritchard has yet to miss a game this season, but he's coming off a poor performance against the Raptors on Saturday. Before the dud, Pritchard averaged 17.3 points, 2.8 assists and 1.3 steals in 28.8 minutes per game across his prior 12 appearances. If he's sidelined, Jordan Walsh and Sam Hauser would be candidates for increased roles.

  • Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Bounces back in win

    Pritchard finished Wednesday's 139-114 victory over Brooklyn with 23 points (8-13 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 2-4 FT), six rebounds, eight assists, one block and two steals in 36 minutes.

    Pritchard shot just 2-for-8 from the field in his last appearance Tuesday against the Hawks, but he made up for it with a big night Wednesday. He led the Boston bench with 23 points and set top marks on the season in rebounds and assists. Pritchard has now reached the 20-point threshold three times in November.

  • Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Rough shooting night

    Pritchard registered six points (2-8 FG, 2-8 3Pt), one rebound, two assists and three steals over 25 minutes during Tuesday's 117-116 loss to the Hawks.

    Pritchard struggled from the field, a blip on what has been an otherwise strong season thus far. Despite the talented roster surrounding him, Pritchard has established himself as one of the more reliable bench scorers in the NBA. While this was far from his best outing, his role is secure and he should look to bounce back against the Nets on Wednesday.

  • Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Shines from deep in win

    Pritchard produced 18 points (6-10 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three assists and one rebound across 23 minutes during Sunday's 113-107 win over the Bucks.

    Pritchard is positioning himself for a Sixth Man of The Year campaign through 11 regular-season outings. The 26-year-old has drained three or more three-pointers in five consecutive games, during which he has also scored at least 16 points in each game. Pritchard continues to provide a crucial spark off the bench, and he has averaged 16.5 points, 3.9 three-pointers, 2.6 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.0 steals across 28.1 minutes per game.

  • Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Drops 20 points Friday

    Pritchard finished Friday's 108-104 overtime win over the Nets with 20 points (6-11 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 5-5 FT), one rebound and one steal over 34 minutes.

    Pritchard continues to be the Celtics' spark plug off the bench this season, as he logged 20 points Friday for the third time. With Jaylen Brown (hip) sidelined, Pritchard has stepped into a larger scoring role alongside Jayson Tatum, Derrick White and Jrue Holiday, and the fifth-year point guard has been particularly lethal from three-point range. Through the first 10 games of the 2024-25 regular season, Pritchard is averaging 16.4 points on 46.5 percent shooting (including 41.3 percent from three on 9.2 3PA/G), 2.8 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.1 steals over 28.7 minutes per game.

  • Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Extends impressive start to season

    Pritchard has been one of the most productive bench players in the first two weeks of the regular season, and the numbers back him up. He's scored at least 15 points in all but one of his last seven outings, a span in which he's averaging 17.9 points per game while shooting an impressive 47.7 percent from three-point range.

  • Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Lethal from deep Saturday

    Pritchard logged 22 points (8-15 FG, 6-12 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists over 29 minutes during Saturday's 113-103 victory over Charlotte.

    Pritchard continued his strong play off the bench Saturday, and he had the ball in his hands more due to Jaylen Brown (hip) being sidelined. Pritchard hit five of his six threes in the first quarter, and he finished Saturday's game as the Celtics' second-leading scorer behind Jayson Tatum (29). Through the first seven games of the regular season, Pritchard is averaging 15.7 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.3 steals across 27.9 minutes per contest.

  • Celtics' Payton Pritchard: On court during crunch time

    Pritchard registered 16 points (5-14 FGT, 4-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one steal over 38 minutes during Wednesday's 135-132 overtime loss to Indiana.

    Pritchard has bounced back from the 1-for-10 outing on Opening Night to score 15-plus points over his last four regular-season outings. Interestingly, Pritchard found himself on the floor during the fourth quarter and overtime alongside Derrick White as Jrue Holiday watched from the bench. It may have been a matchup decision by head coach Joe Mazulla to have Pritchard on the floor instead of Holiday, but it's clear the Celtics trust Pritchard during high-pressure moments. Over his last four outings, Pritchard has averaged 19.5 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.3 assists across 28.4 minutes per game.

    Pritchard tied Eddie House's franchise record for three-pointers made off the bench, hitting eight in the contest, including a buzzer-beater to end the third quarter. The sharpshooter was a problem for Milwaukee all night long as he scored 19 of his 28 points in the first half, ending as the club's second-highest scorer behind Jaylen Brown (30). Pritchard will continue to provide a spark off the bench for the Celtics, and he has now tallied 15-plus points in three consecutive matchups.
