Celtics beat Bulls 100-80

BOSTON (AP) – Isaiah Thomas scored 22 points and later joined fans doing the wave as it circled TD Garden, and the Boston Celtics handed the Chicago Bulls its fifth straight loss, 100-80.

The Celtics rushed to a 13-0 lead, shutting out Chicago until Dwyane Wade’s jumper nearly six minutes into the game.

Thomas, the team’s leading scorer at 29.2 points per game, played only 24 minutes and sat the entire final quarter. He had some fun with the fans in the closing minutes of the blowout, taking part with teammate Jae Crowder in the crowd’s cheer.

Avery Bradley had 17 points. Robin Lopez and Denzel Valentine led the Bulls with 13 points apiece.
