The Boston sharpshooter was asked about Orlando's physical play in Game 1 and whether it will impact the rest of the series.

It took Pritchard, who subbed in late in the first quarter, just 46 seconds to hit his first 3-pointer. Three possessions later, he was fouled on a 3-point attempt and made all three free throws. Twenty seconds after that, he drained a three in transition after a Kristaps Porzingis steal. Three minutes, nine points.

As revealed in a release by the NBA, Pritchard secured 82 first-place votes. The next-closest vote-getter was Detroit Pistons veteran Malik Beasley, who had just 13 first-place votes while no other player received over two.
