DALLAS (AP) — Jaylen Brown had 33 points and 11 rebounds, and the Boston Celtics beat Dallas 110-100 on Tuesday night, overcoming another stellar showing from Cooper Flagg and handing the Mavericks their season-worst fifth consecutive loss.

Jaylen Brown was brilliant. Payton Pritchard moved to the bench and was amazing. Cooper Flagg was incredible for Dallas, but the Celtics got another big bench contribution to get the win in Dallas.
