The Boston Celtics beat the Orlando Magic 111-107 at Kia Center on Sunday (Nov. 9) evening to improve to 5-6 on the season so far. The game was a tight contest throughout, with neither ball club leading by more than a dozen points at any point in the game.

Boston had one of its best nights from beyond the arc so far this season with the Celtics shooting 39.4% from deep, and held their own on the boards on both ends of the court for one of their best wins of the season to date. Big nights from Jaylen Brown (27 points, 5 rebounds) and Derrick White (21 points, 4 assists, 3 steals) among the starters were important to the win.

But it was the bench — and Anfernee Simons (25 points) and Luka Garza (16 points, 8 rebounds) in particular — that made the difference for Boston in the victory, with Jordan Walsh hitting a dagger trey late in the fourth to seal the win.

Let’s take a look at some of the best plays captured in images in the win.
