The Boston Celtics earned their second straight victory Sunday night as they cruised past the Charlotte Hornets at TD Garden.

It was a well-balanced effort for the C's as they had six players in double figures. After a slow start, Jayson Tatum bounced back to put up a team-high 22 points with eight rebounds and four assists. Jaylen Brown added 17 points while going 5-of-8 from 3-point range. Robert Williams stayed hot with 16 points, eight rebounds, and two steals. Evan Fournier contributed 17 points (4-for-5 from 3) and a team-high six assists.

As for how the former Celtics fared for the Hornets, Terry Rozier tallied 22 points while Brad Wanamaker added seven. Gordon Hayward didn't play due to a foot sprain that will keep him out for four weeks.

Here's a recap of the C's win:
