Celtics’ Sharp-Shooting Hero Surprises Everyone…
Sam “Hot Hands” Hauser had a bonanza on the basketball court, setting the hoop ablaze with a sizzling 33-point performance as the Celtics took down the Jazz 114-108. After trying to find his groove in the first half (1/6 from beyond the arc), Hauser flipped a switch in the third quarter. Apparently, he drank a magic potion at halftime because he exploded with seven long-range bombs that left even his teammates in awe. Coach Joe Mazzulla pretty much handed him the keys to the city, saying there’s never a bad shot when Sam’s on the prowl.
In a week filled with career-high scores from Celtics players like Payton Pritchard, Derrick White, and Baylor Scheierman, Sam’s lighting show was the crowning moment. While Jazz coach Will Hardy was busy scratching his head, trying to figure out how to contain the dynamic Hauser, he admitted the sharpshooter isn’t just a spot-up sniper. Hauser is a moving menace— a three-point mic drop artist always on the go, plotting his next swish-venture.
After the game, the modest marksman admitted he struggles with frustration when those open shots go rogue. But hey, the lesson here is you miss 100% of the shots you don’t take, unless you’re Hauser—in which case you only miss the ones before the third quarter! Convinced he glanced at a mirror and said, “You got this!” The Celtics need his three-point wizardry to keep their championship hopes afloat, so game on, Sam! Keep those threes raining!
