The Boston Celtics came back from the dead after
trailing all game long to steal one on the road against the Indiana
Pacers on Saturday night in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Finals
on Day 35 of the 2024 NBA Playoffs.
The Celtics outscored the Pacers 33-21 in the 4th
quarter including Jrue Holiday’s clutch and one bucket with less
than a minute to go.
Holiday came up clutch yet again on the next
possession on the defensive end after stealing the ball from Andrew
Nembhard to essentially seal the win.
The Pacers had a chance to tie the game with 3 seconds
to go but Aaron Nesmith missed a three in the corner off a superb
out-of-bounds play call by Indiana coach Rick Carlisle.
Indiana played without star PG Tyrese Haliburton who
was out due to left hamstring soreness. He is expected to still be
out in Game 4 as Boston goes for the sweep.
