American-born Nigerian Basketball player, Semi Ojeleye played a part in helping his team Boston Celtics, blow-out Brooklyn Nets 149-115 in their matchup on Wednesday.
Celtics who lost their last game to Miami Heat on Tuesday, needed a response from that defeat, and they came back roaring against Nets.
Ojeleye was in action for 17mins:52s and wasn’t going to miss out on the free-scoring day for Celtics, with the Nigerian dropping 9pts and 3rebs in his team’s one-sided victory.
All the points Ojeleye made came from outside shots, attempting five 3pts shot while on the court, and he converted three of those shots and racking up 9pts. Celtics were in fine form against the Nets, having as much as six players who made double figures.
With the win, Celtics are in 3rd place in the Eastern division, above Heat who are in 4th, and both teams are firmly in a position to make the playoffs.
