SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Jaylen Brown and Derrick White each scored 28 points and the short-handed Boston Celtics bounced back from a disappointing loss at Golden State with a 144-119 victory over the Sacramento Kings. Boston blew a 17-point lead before losing to the Warriors in overtime on Tuesday night and played without leading scorer Jayson Tatum and big man Al Horford against the rested Kings. But the Celtics looked like the far fresher team and rolled to their sixth win in seven games. De'Aaron Fox scored 29 points on his 26th birthday to lead the Kings. Sacramento had won three straight.
