Double surprise from the Magic to the Celtics

Boston. Paolo Banchero scored 31 points and Admiral Schofield had 11 of his 13 points in the fourth quarter to help the Orlando Magic complete a back-to-back sweep of Boston with a 95-92 victory over the Celtics Sunday.

Franz Wagner added 12 points and Bol Bol had 11 points and eight rebounds for Orlando, who were 1-11 on the road before a two-game hitting streak over the Celtics at the TD Garden.

Jaylen Brown led Boston with 24 points, Marcus Smart had 15 and Grant Williams 14.

Celtics forward Jayson Tatum sat out the game for personal reasons. The 24-year-old is the team’s leading scorer (averaging 30.2 points) and best in drafts (8.2) and is the fifth leading scorer in the NBA.

Boston center Robert Williams III was playing in his second straight game after missing the first 29 with knee surgery in September. He had six points and five rebounds in 17 minutes.

In another game, the New York Knicks earned their seventh straight win by beating the Indiana Pacers 109-106.
