Boston won a tough contest over the hobbled Indiana Pacers, 114-111 to pull within one game of reaching the NBA Finals. Jayson Tatum had 36 points for the Celtics in a game where Boston trailed by as much as 18 points in the third quarter.
Andrew Nembhard had 32 points for the Pacers in the loss, which was a great effort as their leader Tyrese Haliburton was out with a hamstring injury. The Celtics will go for a sweep on Monday night in Indiana.
