Golden State, chasing the best record in NBA history, hadn't lost a home regular season game since Jan. 27, 2015.
Then Evan Turner and Jared Sullinger entered the picture.
The two former Ohio State All-Americans combined for 41 points to help lead the Boston Celtics to a 109–106 victory over the Warriors at Oracle Arena in Oakland Friday night.
Sullinger pitched in 12 rebounds – and an impressive 2-2 showing from downtown – while Turner added five rebounds and five assists. Isaiah Thomas led the Celtics with 22 points.
Sully summed up his emotions in one tweet following the game:
April Fools!!!!

Turner, who may be our favorite player in the Association, shared a glimpse into the victors' locker room following the game:
The Celtics find themselves a half game out of third in the Eastern Conference and meet up with D'Angelo Russell and the Lakers Sunday.
