The Boston Celtics, despite being without superstar forward Jaylen Brown, cruised to a fairly effortless 112-93 victory over the Sacramento Kings on Friday night. With the game in hand in the fourth quarter, head coach Joe Mazzulla decided to give Chris Boucher some game action for the first time in over two months. Over the offseason, the C’s took a flier on Boucher in free agency, handing him a one-year, $3.3 million contract. To this point, though, he’s struggled to carve out a role for himself in the rotation, with his most recent game action coming on Nov. 23. That…

For Duxbury girls hockey star senior Addy Harrington, there’s likely no bigger compliment. Many of the state’s juggernauts headed to The Bog for the eight-team Tenney Cup over the last weekend of December, and the host Dragons were locked in a scoreless marathon with an undefeated Notre Dame Academy (H) in the semifinals. But on a power play in double overtime, junior Shea Martin won the faceoff out of a timeout from the left dot, Harrington carried the puck into the middle lane, and Harrington wristed in the game-winning goal – executing head coach Dan Najarian’s play call perfectly –…

Coming off one of their most lopsided defeats of the season, the Celtics capitalized on an ideal get-right opportunity Friday night. Boston pummeled a shorthanded, lottery-bound Sacramento Kings squad, 112-93, at TD Garden. With Jaylen Brown sitting out with hamstring and knee injuries, Payton Pritchard spearheaded Boston’s offense, scoring 22 of his 29 points in the first half and adding eight assists. Neemias Queta shot 4-for-11 but totaled 10 points, 15 rebounds, three steals and one block in his return from a lingering illness. Baylor Scheierman, making his fourth start of the season in Brown’s absence, finished with 16 points…

WINCHESTER – The streak continues. Undaunted by playing on the road, Woburn defeated Winchester, 52-39, building upon one of the most impressive winning streaks in the state. The victory extends the undefeated campaign for Woburn (14-0), which has won its last 70 conference games in the Middlesex League. “Our girls needed to be tested, and they were here,” Woburn coach Stephen Sullivan said. “We competed defensively, and we had a couple of nice runs on offense. That’s a tough Winchester team, so this was a very good win for us.” The two stretches of basketball that put this game out…

Good morning! The Red Sox released a behind-the-scenes video from Story Camp yesterday and I highly recommend it for anyone who is looking to improve their form on barbell squats. But the most intriguing thing in the video may come at about the 10-minute mark, when Jarren Duran is briefly shown wearing an infielder’s glove and taking some grounders:Let’s be clear: Duran was almost certainly just messing around and we shouldn’t read anything into this. It has now been seven years since Duran was moved off of second base, which happened almost as soon as he entered professional baseball. There…

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — If it seems like Christian Gonzalez is lingering on the field during pregame warmups on Super Bowl Sunday, that’s because he probably will be.After a series of setbacks over his first three NFL seasons, the 23-year-old is well aware of how fast things can change in this league. So, getting to play on its biggest stage for the first time isn’t something he is taking lightly.“Treat it like another game, but you know it’s not another game,” the Patriots cornerback said. “It’s the last one, so you just go out there and you just give it all you’ve got.

Brad Stevens has done a remarkable job since being named the President of Basketball Operations for the Boston Celtics. In 2024, he earned the NBA Executive of the Year award. And that was before he built another championship-contending roster in just months after finding out he may be without the team’s best player for the entire season. Stevens has not been shy about making moves during seasons and at the trade deadline. He most notably conjured deals that brought Derrick White, Daniel Theis, Dennis Schroder and Xavier Tillman at previous deadlines. The vibe around the league seems to be that…
