Paul George stole the show in Tuesday's highly anticipated matchup between the Boston Celtics and Philadelphia 76ers, scoring a game-high 36 points in a 123-101 blowout victory for Boston.

Jayson Tatum added 21 points and six boards, while Jaylen Brown managed only 13 points in his first game against the Celtics since being dealt to Philadelphia in the offseason. George was sent to Boston in the same trade.

The Celtics shot the lights out from beyond the arc, making 22 of their 49 (45%) attempts.

With the win, Boston leapfrogged Philadelphia for the East's top spot.
