Overview

• Boston closed preseason at 3-1 with a 110-108 win over Toronto decided by Xavier Tillman Sr.’s floater in the final seconds.
• Jaylen Brown left in the first quarter with left hamstring tightness, was ruled doubtful to return, and did not re-enter.
• Mazzulla offered a cautious update that Brown said he will be fine, leaving his availability to be monitored ahead of opening night.
• Derrick White led the Celtics with 33 points, nine rebounds and six assists, while Neemias Queta added 12 rebounds and four blocks.
• Toronto debuted its projected starters for the first time this preseason and the unit struggled, as Boston again leaned on a deep, variable rotation Mazzulla has suggested could continue.
