Warriors dealt embarrᴀssing 40-point loss by Celtics in worst home defeat in four decades

Jayson Tatum led six Boston players in double figures with a game-high 22 points on Monday as the Celtics steamrolled the Golden State Warriors 125-85 in San Francisco as part of the NBA’s Martin Luther King Jr. Day slate.

Kristaps Porzingis chipped in 18 points and Jaylen Brown scored 17 for Boston, which for the fourth straight season dropped the season-series opener to Golden State before getting even – and then some – in the rematch.

Golden State had not lost by 40 at home since Jan. 15, 1985.

Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors looks on during the game against the Boston Celtics on January 20, 2025 at Chase Center in San Francisco, California.

The 40-point margin was similar to the 140-88 pounding the Celtics dealt the Warriors last March after Golden State had won 132-126 in overtime three months earlier.

This time around, the Warriors surprised the defending champs on their home floor with a 118-112 win on Nov. 6.

Tatum also found time for a game-high nine rebounds to go along with seven ᴀssists and two steals. Payton Pritchard paired his game-high nine ᴀssists with 14 points.
