Celtics Poised to Advance to Conference Semifinals as Heat Struggle with Injuries

The Celtics lead 3-1 in the series against the Heat and can secure their ticket to the Conference Semifinals on Thursday night (1:30 a.m.). Opponents in the next playoff round would be the Cleveland Cavaliers or Orlando Magic. The Cavs currently lead 3-2 in this series.

In the regular season, Porzingis averaged 20.1 points and 7.2 rebounds and played a major role in the team securing the top seed in the Eastern Conference with a record of 64-18.

The Heat also have another loss to contend with: rookie Jaime Jaquez Jr. will miss Game 5 with a hip injury. He did not travel to Boston with the team. Miami is already without Jimmy Butler and Terry Rozier.
