The Celtics have achieved 23 double-digit victories away from home, outscoring opponents by a total of 404 points on the road. This remarkable performance has tied them for the most road wins in franchise history. Al Horford, Celtics forward, shared his thoughts: "We've been very focused and I feel like even last year, we were good.
