A win for the Celtics on Wednesday night would punch their ticket to a third straight Eastern Conference Finals appearance. Doing so may not require them going through multiple members of the Cavaliers' starting five.
On Wednesday night at TD Garden, the Celtics have a chance to punch their ticket to a third consecutive appearance in the Eastern Conference Finals. It would be their sixth time on that stage in the last eight years.
Mitchell missed the Cavaliers' 109-102 loss on Monday due to a left calf strain he suffered in the fourth quarter of Cleveland's Game 3 defeat on Saturday. It would also be surprising if Jarrett Allen suits up. The former All-Star center has not played since Game 4 in the first round against the Magic due to a rib contusion.
Caris LeVert is also questionable for Wednesday's contest due to a bone bruise in his left knee. He produced 19 points, five rebounds, three assists, two steals, and a block in Game 4. For Jaylen Brown, a win against what is likely a depleted Cavaliers team on Wednesday would mean he's reached at least the Eastern Conference Finals six times in his eight-year career. For Jayson Tatum, it would represent his fifth time in the NBA's final four in his seven years in the league.Jrue Holiday Delivers 'Masterclass' in Game 3 Win vs. CavsDerrick White Discusses Joining Elite Company in Game 1 Win vs.
