Los Alamitos Division 1 National Junior Basketball league’s Celtics won the playoff championship beating all other teams recently.

The Celtics were 4-4 for the season, but at the end of the season they entered a playoff situation where it was a one game elimination.  The Celtics defined the odds and won every game in the playoffs to become the Los Al NJB champions. The Celtics big “Cole Morales” got hurt with three minutes left with only one basket ahead of the Nuggets. The Celtics had to control the game and not allow a turn over. Race Kaiser “point guard” burned the clock with the help of his teammates to win the game.
