BOSTON — Celtics guard Payton Pritchard was up to some end-of-quarter, long-distance magic again on Monday night. He hit a 26-foot 3-pointer from the right wing with 0.4 seconds left, giving Boston a 90-82 lead over the Milwaukee Bucks after three quarters. The Celtics went on to win 119-108 and Pritchard finished with eight 3-pointers and 28 points. During Boston's run to the NBA championship last season, the 6-foot-1 guard hit a pair of key 3-pointers during the Finals, in which Celtics beat the Dallas Mavericks 4-1.
