Game 5 preview
In Game 4, the Philadelphia 76ers found new life thanks to T.J.
McConnell getting the start. The guard put up 19 points to go with eight boards and five assists, ultimately helping his team get a 103-92 victory. In addition, he played solid defense on Boston Celtics guard Terry Rozier, who was held to just 11 points on a 4-for-11 shooting night. McConnell will get the start again in Boston for Game 5 as his team tries to stave off elimination for the second-straight game. His teammate Ben Simmons also scored 19 in the most recent game to go with 13 rebounds and five assists. Dario Saric scored 25 points while Joel Embiid had 15 points and 12 boards in a solid effort.
Meanwhile, the Boston Celtics are looking to close things out and after having won the first two games on their home court, they're back to try to get another win.
One of the biggest drivers of their success has been rookie Jayson Tatum, who ESPN reported is averaging 23 points per game in the series. The team will be without guard Shane Larkin who is dealing with a shoulder injury and is considered out of action for the "foreseeable future." Even with players hurt, it's clear that head coach Brad Stevens has found a way to win games.
For tonight's potential close-out game, the odds favor the Boston Celtics but only slightly. They're one-point favorites on the spread, with a moneyline price of -120. The visiting 76ers are +100 underdogs while the over/under points total is 205 points for the complete game.
