Pritchard has been one of the best bench performers this season, and this 29-point outing represented a new season-high mark for him. Pritchard has scored at least 20 points in six different games in 2024-25 and continues to have a career-best season while holding a prominent role in the Celtics' second unit.

The Celtics had a full healthy roster for the first time all season at the start of Friday’s win over the Bulls but that did not keep them from leaning heavily on their sixth man when it mattered most.
