Entering the third quarter, the Kings' 10-point halftime lead was trimmed to one. And after not having led since it was 10-8, the C's took an 87-86 lead with under eight minutes left in the final frame.
Ultimately though, the Kings pulled away from the Celtics late and were able to earn their first win in the city of Boston in 13 years.
