The Celtics’ six-game win streak is over, snuffed out by one of the NBA’s hottest and most surprising teams. The Pistons dominated the second half of Wednesday’s matchup at Little Caesars Arena, cruising to a 117-97 victory over a Boston team that was playing without injured All-Star Jaylen Brown (thigh contusion).

TORONTO — Jaylen Brown scored 24 points, Derrick White had 22 and the Boston Celtics extended their winning streak to six games by beating the Toronto Raptors 111-101 on Tuesday night. Payton Pritchard scored 20 points and Jayson Tatum had 19 points and 11 assists as the Celtics improved to 24-6 on the road.

The Pistons (33-26) won their eighth straight and ended a 12-game losing streak against Boston, two nights after stopping a 10-game skid against the LA Clippers. Copyright: © 2025 ESPN Enterprises, Inc.
