The Boston Celtics are a mere win away from a return to the 2024 NBA Finals. But to get back to the league’s biggest stage, they will need to defeat a desperate if hobbled Indiana Pacers ball club in Game 4 of the 2024 Eastern Conference finals on the Pacers’ home court of Gainsbridge Fieldhouse this Monday (May 27) night.
The Celtics may have a healthy Kristaps Porzingis back in the fold after the Latvian big man missed most of Boston’s run in the league’s 2024 postseason after straining his right soleus in the first round of the 2024 playoffs.
But unless a mostly healthy Tyrese Haliburton suits up for Indiana despite his evident reinjury to his left hamstring, we expect Boston to close out the series tonight.
