Former UW standout Nate Robinson came alive for the Boston Celtics last night in Game 6 of the NBA Eastern Conference Finals. Robinson scored 13 points, all coming during an important stretch of the second quarter when he spelled a banged up Rajon Rondo.

Robinson, who has been seldom-used in the playoffs, came over to the Celtics from New York in a late-season trade and patiently waited his turn. He had logged just 43 minutes throughout the postseason before Friday night's game.

The Celtics won 96-84 to advance past the Orlando Magic and into the NBA Championship where they will face the winner of Los Angeles and Phoenix.
