Boston Celtics News and Rumors - NBA

Rhyne Howard - Cools off in loss to Fever Howard finished with eight points (2-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds and three steals across 37 minutes in Thursday's 83-71 loss to the Fever.

Impact Howard had a season-high 36 points in Tuesday's 91-75 win over Connecticut, though she couldn't keep it going Thursday night versus Indiana. Still, it's been a quality 2026 campaign for the 26-year-old, who is now averaging a career-best 17.9 points through eight regular-season appearances. Howard has also been a menace on the defensive side of the ball, combining for 12 steals in the last three regular-season games.

Impact Gray wasn't able to knock down any of her three-point attempts Thursday night. However, despite the shooting struggles in the loss to Indiana, the 31-year-old has had a quality 2026 campaign, averaging a career-best 20.2 points, 4.1 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.6 blocks over 34.0 minutes in nine regular-season games.

Impact Reese recorded her third consecutive double-double Thursday and her sixth in nine regular-season games thus far. However, the 2024 No. 7 overall pick continued to have trouble getting her shots to fall. Reese has also had issues taking care of the ball, committing four turnovers in two of her last three regular-season appearances.
