“It’s huge,” Gilgeous-Alexander said of the 118-112 win after putting up 34 points, 7 assists and 5 rebounds in 39 minutes. “Because [the Celtics have] done it, because they’ve done what we’re trying to do, the games against them are always going to be heightened. They’re always going to be a little bit more exciting. They, like I said, achieved what we are trying to accomplish, and there’s no better test in the NBA. “You play for late June, and the other team had won late June. So playing against them is always fun, always a really big challenge and something that we get to test ourselves against them. I guess we passed two tests so far.”
