BOSTON (AP) — The Boston Celtics secured a 120-89 victory over the Orlando Magic in Game 5 of the first round of the 2025 NBA Playoffs, advancing to the Eastern Conference semifinals. Jayson Tatum led with 35 points, while Paolo Banchero’s foul trouble significantly impacted the Magic’s performance. The Celtics, who adapted their strategy and did not make a 3-pointer in the first half, will face either the New York Knicks or Detroit Pistons in the next round.
