The Boston Celtics beat the Indiana Pacers, 114-111, in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Finals on Saturday to go up 3-0 in the series and inch closer to an NBA Finals appearance.
Jayson Tatum led all scorers with 36 points, making it a double-double with 10 rebounds. Al Horford and Jalen Brown combined for 47, as well, in the win, and all five starters finished the game in double-digits.
The Pacers were without key player Tyrese Haliburton because of a hamstring strain, and his availability for Game 4 is up in the air. Despite 32 points from Andrew Nembhard and 44 combined from Pascal Siakam and Myles Turner, the Pacers were held to 22.7% percent from beyond the arc and couldn’t overcome the Celtics offense.
It will be difficult for the Pacers to overcome a 3-0 deficit, especially without Haliburton in the mix. For Boston, there’s only one win at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in between them and a shot at the title.
