Pritchard ended with 11 points (5-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt), two rebounds and four assists in 28 minutes during Friday's 119-81 loss to New York in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals. The NBA's Sixth Man of the Year, Pritchard had a terrific 2024-25 campaign for the Celtics. Across 80 regular-season contests, Pritchard averaged 14.3 points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.5 assists while shooting 47.2 percent from the field and 40.7 percent from beyond the arc. A larger role for Pritchard could be on the table in 2025-26 due to Jayson Tatum (Achilles) facing a lengthy rehab.

Payton Pritchard Player Profile
Career History


Payton Pritchard Latest News
Scores 11 points in loss

Pritchard ended with 11 points (5-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt), two rebounds and four assists in 28 minutes during Friday's 119-81 loss to New York in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals. The NBA's Sixth Man of the Year, Pritchard had a terrific 2024-25 campaign for the Celtics. Across 80 regular-season contests, Pritchard averaged 14.3 points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.5 assists while shooting 47.2 percent from the field and 40.7 percent from beyond the arc. A larger role for Pritchard could be on the table in 2025-26 due to Jayson Tatum (Achilles) facing a lengthy rehab.
Notches 17 points

Pritchard accumulated 17 points (6-17 FG, 5-14 3Pt), five rebounds, three assists and one steal over 39 minutes during Wednesday's 127-102 win over the Knicks in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals. This was Boston's first game without superstar Jayson Tatum (Achilles), and as evidenced by Pritchard's workload, the Celtics are clearly going to lean heavily on the point guard going forward. Plus, Kristaps Porzingis continues to battle an illness, meaning Pritchard could see heavy usage for the foreseeable future.
Scores 12 points in Game 4

Pritchard supplied 12 points (4-10 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and one steal across 20 minutes during Monday's 121-113 loss to the Knicks in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals. Jayson Tatum wasn't able to return to Game 4 due to an apparent right lower-leg injury, and he is scheduled to undergo an MRI on Tuesday. The Celtics are using a very tight rotation in the playoffs, and if Tatum is forced to miss time, Pritchard would likely be the player to step into a featured role for Boston.
Leads Boston in scoring

Pritchard ended Saturday's 115-93 win over New York in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals with 23 points (8-16 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal over 35 minutes. Surprisingly, Pritchard led the Celtics in scoring, and his elite shooting ability was on full display Saturday. The reigning Sixth Man of the Year made 50 percent of his threes and delivered his best scoring output of the current postseason run. Pritchard has scored in double digits in five of his eight playoff showings to date.
Tallies 13 points in loss Wednesday

Pritchard amassed 13 points (3-6 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds and one assist in 24 minutes during Monday's 108-105 overtime loss to New York in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals. Pritchard scored in double digits for the second straight game, albeit barely. All in all, it's been a quiet postseason for Pritchard, with him scoring more than 15 points only once. His role is to provide the team with a scoring punch off the bench, something he has failed to do for the most part. Game 2 is scheduled for Wednesday and will give Pritchard a chance to turn things around.
Fails to score despite victory

Pritchard amassed zero points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one rebound and two assists across 26 minutes during Sunday's 107-98 victory over Orlando in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Pritchard was a non-factor yet again, failing to score for just the second time all season. Although Boston was still able to get the win, it is going to need more from Payton moving forward, should the Celtics hope to once again return to the top of the mountain. Game 5 is scheduled for Tuesday in Boston, where Pritchard will almost certainly be looking to make an impact.
Disappears in Game 3 loss

Pritchard accumulated three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 FT), one rebound and two steals across 26 minutes during Friday's 95-93 loss to Orlando in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Pritchard was invisible in the loss, turning in arguably his worst performance of the season. Fresh of being named Sixth Man of the Year, Pritchard was a non-factor as the Celtics allowed the Magic back into the series. Game 4 is scheduled for Sunday when Boston will be hoping to reassert their dominance.
Scores 14 points in win

Pritchard closed with 14 points (5-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-3 FT), three rebounds and one steal across 33 minutes during Wednesday's 109-100 win over the Magic in Game 2 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Jayson Tatum missed this game with a wrist issue, and it was Pritchard and Al Horford who soaked up the majority of his minutes. He's been excellent to start the playoffs, averaging 16.5 points, 1.5 assists, 1.5 rebounds and 3.5 three-pointers in 29.0 minutes.
Pops for 19 points Sunday

Pritchard accumulated 19 points (6-8 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT) and three assists across 25 minutes during Sunday's 103-86 win over Orlando in Game 1 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Pritchard played his role to perfection, helping the Celtics to a solid, yet unimpressive victory. It's been a banner season for Pritchard who was earlier in the day named as a finalist for the Sixth Man of the Year award. Given how poor the Celtics were on offense, it's hard to see the Magic causing Boston too many issues moving forward. Look for Pritchard to have another productive outing when the two teams meet again Wednesday.
