ORLANDO, Fla., Nov. 25 (UPI) -- Boston's Rajon Rondo turned in an all-around game with 15 points and 16 assists Sunday and the Celtics prevailed over Orlando 116-110 in overtime.

Rondo -- who recorded his 37th straight game with at least 10 assists -- also hauled down nine rebounds, falling one short of a triple-double as the Celtics dispatched the Magic for a sixth straight meeting.

Kevin Garnett supplied 24 points with 10 boards, Brandon Bass added 13 and 12, and Paul Pierce netted 23 points for Boston.

Jameer Nelson put in 17 of his 20 points during a second-half rally for Orlando, which saw its two-game winning streak snapped.

J.J. Reddick added 21 points, while Glen Davis and Arron Affalo (15 points each) also reached double figures in the Magic's setback.
