On Saturday night, the Boston Celtics took a commanding 3-0 lead over the Indiana Pacers in a 114-111 clutch win at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. The Pacers fought tenaciously on their home court without Tyrese Haliburton in the lineup, and actually controlled most of the game until late in the 4th quarter. It was all thanks to Jrue Holiday and his efforts on defense that sparked the Celtics comeback, including a game sealing steal in the final seconds. Holiday was listed as questionable for the game before tip off due to illness.
“Yeah, I didn’t feel too well,” said Jrue Holiday in his postgame interview, “But I guess I just figured if I got a good day’s rest or try to sleep through it that it would help me for tonight.
