De'Aaron Fox puts up 16 & 8 in preseason debut

De'Aaron Fox
PG, Sacramento Kings

De'Aaron Fox finished with 16 points, eight assists, three rebounds and one steal one 6-of-15 shooting in 33 minutes on Friday.

Fox had four turnovers in this one and didn't attempt a triple but he should get better as the season comes around. He's locked into big minutes, big opportunity and hopefully big production for his owners. He'll look to build on his top-70 finish last season and could be a top-40 guy this year.

Marcus Smart
PG, Boston Celtics

Marcus Smart was a model of efficient shooting for the Celtics on Saturday, making 5-of-10 shots from the field and was a perfect 10-for-10 from the line for 20 points, four rebounds and six assists.

This is another quality game from Smart, whose contributions don't always pop up on the stat sheet. He saw 36 minutes on the floor tonight, but could be on his way back to the bench in the near future, potentially being replaced by Gordon Hayward (right ankle sprain), who is still working his way back to 100 percent health.

Kemba Walker
PG, Boston Celtics

Kemba Walker hit a team-high four triples on Saturday, on his way to scoring 21 points on 8-of-16 FGs with six rebounds and two assists.

Walker got some good open looks tonight, thanks to Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown dominating action in the paint and giving the Heat all sorts of headaches. The Celtics' Big 3 were able to come through in this one and were playing in sync for most of the night – a formula they'll need to master if they want to even up the series in Game 4.

Gordon Hayward
SF, Boston Celtics

Gordon Hayward quietly put up six points on 2-of-7 shooting in 31 minutes off the bench on Saturday, adding five rebounds, four assists, one triple, three steals and one block.

Don't let the low scoring output fool you, Hayward was able to make his presence felt in this game thanks to his across-the-board contributions, making him one of key difference makers that lead to the win. Of course, the biggest takeaway tonight was that he was able to play a whopping 31 minutes which is an indicator that his right ankle sprain is now in the rearview.

Jayson Tatum
SF, Boston Celtics

Jayson Tatum was beast on the glass on Saturday night, pulling down 14 rebounds to go along with his 25 points (9-of-20 FG, 5-of-5 FT), eight assists and two triples.

Jaylen Brown may have scored the most points for the team (25 points), but it was Tatum that made the biggest impact towards securing this much-needed victory. He was busting some impressive moves and was an active force in the paint, leading the Celtics with an impressive plus-23 in the +/- column. Tatum will need to replicate this performance in multiples if the Celtics are to emerge victorious in this series and advance to the NBA finals.

Jaylen Brown
SG, Boston Celtics

Jaylen Brown poured in a team-high 26 points to lead the Celtics to a 117-106 Game 3 win over the Heat on Saturday.

Brown hit 11-of-17 shots from the field and made 3-of-5 of his free throw attempts. He also added seven rebounds, one trey, five assists, three steals and one block for an overall well-rounded performance. Brown was aggressive on both ends of the floor and the Celtics were able to enjoy a comfortable lead for the first three quarters of the game, up until the Heat made a last-ditch run in the fourth quarter. This is a good first step for the Celtics who have now shown that this will not be a cake walk for the Heat but instead could be an intense, hard-fought series that could go the distance of seven games.
