Orlando and Boston are set for Game 2 tonight.
The Boston Celtics and the Orlando Magic will play inside TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts, on Wednesday, April 23.
The Celtics were 61-21 in the regular season, whereas the Magic were 41-41 in the regular season.
The biggest point of uncertainty right now is Jayson Tatum’s status for Game 2, as he has been dealing with a wrist injury he suffered during Game 1. While Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla said Tatum’s wrist is doing fine after his injury, it’s possible that Boston may have to play without their top scorer.
Here’s what you need to know about today’s game, the second game of the Celtics-Magic series in the NBA playoffs.
