Though still working with a shorthanded roster, the Jazz’s loss was not caused by lack of effort. The Celtics' Sam Hauser caught fire in the third quarter, scoring 23 of his career-best 33 points, including hitting seven of his nine 3-pointers in that period alone.

Sam Hauser made nine 3-pointers — seven in the third quarter — and finished with a career-high 33 points to lead the short-handed Boston Celtics past the Utah Jazz 114-108.

He does the same process everyday, whether he does this or whether he goes 1/7,” Joe Mazzulla said of Sam Hauser after the Celtics 114-108 win over the Utah Jazz. Hauser scored a career high 33 points on Monday night.
