The Boston Celtics, with 8.49 minutes on the court for Spaniard Hugo Gonzalez, fell 123-110 this Friday, November 7, in their visit to the Orlando Magic.
Orlando’s loss, in a game that was also an NBA Cup game, was the sixth defeat of the year in ten games; for the Boston Celtics, the third in their last four games.
Hugo Gonzalez adds minutes
Hugo Gonzalez, rookie selected with the 28th overall pick in the last draft and trained at Real Madrid, did not take any shots in the 8.49 minutes he was given by Joe Mazzulla.
He grabbed four rebounds and dished out an assist coming off the bench.
For the Boston Celtics, Jaylen Brown’s 32 points and Payton Pritchard’s 27 were not enough.
They continue to miss their great leader, Jayson Tatum, who will miss the entire season with an Achilles injury.
The Magic celebrated their fourth win out of nine this season, led by 27 points from Franz Wagner and 22 from Desmond Bane.

Boston Celtics look to react
After falling 123-110 to the Orlando Magic, the Boston Celtics are preparing for a demanding streak that will test their endurance in NBA 2025.
The team coached by Joe Mazzulla will face Orlando again this Sunday, November 9, in an attempt to turn around its image and regain competitive rhythm.
The team will then travel to Philadelphia to take on the 76ers on Tuesday, November 11, in one of the most anticipated matchups in the Eastern Conference.
Just one day later, the Boston Celtics will return to TD Garden to host the Memphis Grizzlies in what promises to be a high-intensity matchup.
With an inconsistent start to the season and the prolonged absence of Jayson Tatum due to injury, Boston will be looking to get back to winning ways and reaffirm their status as a contender in an increasingly competitive league.
