Jayson Tatum's big second half, Derrick White & Sam Hauser big first half, lifts Boston Celtics

Jayson Tatum started slow in Detroit, which would have been a problem without Jaylen Brown and Marcus Smart, but Derrick White and Sam Hauser were up to the task to carry the Celtics until Tatum could get going. He did more than that in the second half, exploding for a monster third quarter and returning in the fourth to hold off the Pistons. John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal has all that and why none of it would have happened if it wasn't for Robert Williams.
