Follow Us
The Boston Celtics currently sit on the top of the Eastern Conference table with a 17-4record for the season so far. The Celtics added to their four-game winning streak after torching the Charlotte Hornets 140-105 on Tuesday night. Since the start of the game, the Celtics seemed to be in full domination, and Michael Jordan’s Hornets struggled on the night. Furthermore, to make things worse, Kelly Oubre Jr. decided to make an outlandish move. As the clip went on the internet, the Hornets player’s moves brought out plenty of reactions from the NBA community.
During the 3rd quarter of the game between the Celtics and the Hornets, the Celtics were in a 30-point lead. It seemed like Kelly Oubre Jr. knew the outcome so he decided to do some showboating. After scoring a floater over 6’7″ Sam Hauser, Oubre decided to do the “too small” celebration. However, looking at the situation of the team, that celebration possibly came at a bad time.

On the other hand, Jalen McDaniels was the top performer for the Charlotte Hornets. He scored 24 points, 1 rebound, and 2 assists. Kelly Oubre Jr. scored 22 points, 5 rebounds, and 3 assists. Michael Jordan will undoubtedly be unhappy with the way his team performed and lost by such a large margin.
