The Celtics grabbed win No. 50 on the season with a 104-96 home victory over the Nets

Boston Celtics grabbed win No. 50 on the season with a 104-96 victory over the Brooklyn Nets Tuesday night at TD Garden. (Boston also picked up a win against the Nets on Saturday.)

It was a hard-fought win for the Celtics. There were 13 lead changes in the game, and it wasn't until the final minutes of the fourth quarter that Boston pulled ahead. Credit rookie Baylor Scheierman, who stepped up with a career-high 20 points in the game, an important scoring punch for Boston with Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown both sidelined by injury. The Celtics now hit the road for a six-game road trip, the longest of the season with the playoffs still a few weeks away.

Let's check out the best moments from the game captured in photos. Here are the top plays from a 104-96 Celtics win over the Nets.
