Boston, MA – Rajon Rondo scored a game-high 21 points on 7- 8 shooting as the Boston Celtics cruised to a 96-73 victory over the Toronto Raptors.
Rondo, though, left the game late in the third quarter with a wrist injury after taking a hard foul by Toronto's Linas Kleiza on a layup attempt. He laid on the ground in pain for several minutes before getting up with the help of trainers and walked into the locker room after making 1-of-2 free throws.
Kevin Garnett added 15 points and seven rebounds as Boston snapped its five- game losing streak.
Gary Forbes scored 18 points to pace a Raptors team that was held to 37.7 percent shooting in the game. DeMar DeRozan contributed 11 points in Toronto's sixth straight defeat.
