League Celtics took their record to 3-1 in Las Vegas with a 87-78 win over the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday, July 17. Baylor Scheierman's struggles from the field continued, as he went 2-of-14 for a field goal percentage of 14.

Walsh ended up with a team-high 17 points for the Celtics in the victory as the third-year forward bounced back from a first-half ejection in Monday’s loss to the Heat. He came back with a chip on his shoulder and admitted he was fueled even more by the Lakers’ tactics against him in the matchup.

Boston enters at 2-1 while Los Angeles sits at 1-2 ahead of Thursday's 9 p.m. ET matchup on ESPN from Las Vegas.
