The Boston Celtics reached a major milestone Wednesday, posting his first triple-double since returning from a torn Achilles in early March. He finished with 25 points, 18 rebounds and 11 assists in a 147-129 win over the Miami Heat.

Jaylen Brown led all scorers with 43 points on 17-of-29 shooting, plus 7 assists.
