The Celtics have won five of six, and – outside of a setback against the Wizards – are starting to return to form as the playoffs near.
Boston is 54-24 with four games remaining and currently holds the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference.
The Celtics are 1.5 games behind the Bucks – yes, the Bucks they just demolished by 41 points – and 2.5 games up on the 76ers.
Boston has three days off before facing the 76ers in Philadelphia on Tuesday, April 4, at 8 p.m. The Bucks and 76ers play Sunday, so a 76ers win could help the Celtics in their quest for the 1-seed and a Bucks win could help the Celtics avoid the 3-seed.
