NBA Daily Notes: The Raptors keep winning; Top fantasy picks for January 12th

PG 2 - Kyrie Irving (Boston Celtics):

Boston Celtics are playing well but need to get better

Preview:

The Boston Celtics are a team that were expected to start the season all guns blazing. But they have had an underwhelming start and are at the 5th spot in the Eastern Conference. They have a 25-16 record but have gotten better of late, winning 7 of their last 10 and will look to keep this form going.

Last 3 games:

1. 10/1/2019 - L - Miami Heat, 99-115
2. 9/1/2019 - W - Indiana Pacers, 135-108
3. 7/1/2019 - W - Brooklyn Nets, 116-95

Player performances and review:

Kyrie Irving was having a really rough start to the season, averaging just 16 points per game in October, but has steadily improved, averaging just under 23 points per game this season, along with just under 5 rebounds and more than 6 assists a game.

In the loss against the Miami Heat, Irving had a great game, scoring 22 points, along with 5 assists, 5 rebounds, a steal, and a block as well. He was playing really well, and he along with the Celtics will be hoping to keep his form against the Orlando Magic tomorrow.

Alternate pick: Mike Conley Jr. (Memphis Grizzlies)
