Boston Celtics maintain undefeated preseason record

The Boston Celtics have extended their preseason winning streak to three games following a 114-93 victory over the Charlotte Hornets. During the matchup, guard Payton Pritchard demonstrated significant playmaking ability, recording 11 assists without a turnover, despite struggling with his shooting accuracy.

Head coach Joe Mazzulla utilized various lineups and rotations during the contest to evaluate roster depth. The team has maintained a high offensive efficiency, averaging 1.22 points per possession across their preseason games.

While the Celtics have shown strong performance, analysts have noted the team's roster changes, including the acquisition of Paul George and Mitchell Robinson following the trade of Jaylen Brown. Some projections suggest the team may face challenges in the Eastern Conference due to financial constraints and the need for further complementary pieces to contend for a championship.
