It looked like Brad Stevens put too much faith in the Grizzlies being able to pull this one out. With the Celts up by 4 with 10 minutes left in the game, Stevens pulled Green out of the game. Green went back into the game, and the Grizz tied it up at 82. Fortunately, the Grizzlies had no intention of hurting the Celtics opportunity to get Wiggins, and the Celtics turned the ball over far too often to get the win. Celtics now have 4 losses and are the clear favorites for the best draft position in July 2014.
Tonight’s game was the only one featuring a team actively tanking for the best shot at Wiggins.
The Cavaliers played the Timberwolves and went up early. Despite a furious comeback by the T-Wolves, the Cavs held on for the win.
