JD Davison had 16 points and 14 assists for the Celtics, who played without Luka Samanic (health and safety protocols), Denzel Valentine (finger) and Scottie Lindsey (groin). They had to go to a small lineup after Mfiondu Kabengele fouled out early in the fourth quarter.

SKIING
WORLD CUP: American skier Mikaela Shiffrin’s pursuit of a record 83rd World Cup win will move on to the next stop on the circuit.
Shiffrin finished seventh in a super-G in Cortina d’Ampezzo, Italy, 0.62 seconds behind race winner Ragnhild Mowinckel.
Her next chances to break a tie with former teammate Lindsey Vonn for the women’s record will come in two giant slaloms at the Kronplatz resort in nearby San Vigilio di Marebbe on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Mowinckel finished 0.30 seconds ahead of Cornelia Huetter and 0.47 seconds ahead of Marta Bassino on the course that will be used for the 2026 Milan-Cortina Olympics.
• Daniel Yule won a men’s slalom in Kitzbuehel, Austria, rallying from seventh place after the first run.
Dave Ryding, who triumphed last year to become the first British skier to win a World Cup race, posted the fastest time in the second run and improved from 16th to second place, 0.40 behind Yule.
SOCCER
ENGLAND: Eddie Nketiah scored twice – including a 90th-minute winner – and Bukayo Saka also scored as Arsenal earned a 3-2 win over Manchester United to maintain some breathing room atop the Premier League table.
The victory keeps Arsenal five points clear of Manchester City with a game in hand.
• Erling Haaland scored his fourth Premier League hat trick of the season to lead Manchester City to a 3-0 win over Wolverhampton.
GERMANY: Gio Reyna scored the winning goal in his first game since the World Cup as Borussia Dortmund beat Augsburg 4-3 in the Bundesliga – a game that also saw Reyna’s teammate, Sebastien Haller, return after treatment for testicular cancer.
Reyna, a 20-year-old midfielder who was limited to a pair of substitute appearances for the U.S. in the World Cup, came on in the 70th minute and scored eight minutes later. He was left in space to the right of the penalty area, allowing him to control the ball before flicking it up and over goalkeeper Rafal Gikiewicz.
