Kyrie Irving performed the role of closer with 12 points in overtime to drive the Boston Celtics by the Washington Wizards 130-125. The win was Boston's seventh straight.

The Celtics were without Al Horford, Gordon Hayward and last-minute scratch Jaylen Brown, and thus got 40 minutes from three different players, including Irving who had a game-high 38 points.

John Wall and Bradley Beal were superb in forcing the extra period, but Irving took control late and sealed things with two big threes. He (10 of 10), and the team (25 of 25) were perfect from the foul line.

According to Boston Celtics head coach Brad Stevens, Al Horford will miss a few games to get his kneecap back to full strength. Gordon Hayward is still home sick, but Kyrie Irving is expected back tonight in Washington.

The Celtics' six-game win streak has pushed them within 4.5 games of the top spot in the Eastern Conference, and given them the third best scoring differential in the NBA.

Guerschon Yabusele remains out, while Aron Baynes is a game-time decision. John Wall is probable for the Wizards, but Otto Porter Jr. remains questionable.
