Kelly Olynyk had himself a night.
The Boston Celtics forward scored 26 points off the bench Monday night in the C’s Game 7 victory over the Washington Wizards at TD Garden.
Olynyk’s huge performance is one of the main reasons the Celtics will play the Cleveland Cavaliers in the NBA’s Eastern Conference finals, and the internet went nuts after each bucket Olynyk poured in.
Olynyk endured a lot of criticism during the series with the Wizards, much of it stemming from Kelly Oubre Jr.’s shove during Game 3 of the second-round series. Afterward, questions began to arise about whether the C’s big man was a dirty player.
Olynyk and the internet got the last laugh Monday night, though.
