The Wizards walked the walk on Tuesday night, as they backed up their plans for a Celtics funeral with a 15-point win over their regular season rivals. Surprisingly, there was no on-court beefing this time around, but that didn’t stop one mystery Celtics player from throwing a punch… at a wall.
The Boston Globe’s Gary Washburn took video of the wall punch aftermath:

Washburn notes that the identity of the wall puncher remains unknown, but Marcus Smart, who was shouting at his coaches during the game, seems to be the heavy favorite. He issued an apology after the game for his actions:

Congrats, Wizards — you guys broke Marcus in January.
