Evan Fournier’s debut with the Boston Celtics, after what turned out to be a false positive COVID-19 test, a few days after he has been traded by the Orlando Magic hasn’t been ideal on Monday night.

In fact, the French swingman made NBA history as he struggled to find his shot in his first game with Boston. Fournier went 0-for-10 (0-for-5 from 3) in 33 minutes in a 115-109 loss to the New Orleans Pelicans, becoming the first player in league history with these numbers in his debut game, according to Boston Sports Info.

28-year-old Fournier entered Monday’s game against the Pelicans with an average of 19.5 points per game this season, as he was among Orlando’s leaders.
