After Action Report
The Celtics survived the Magic 97-93. Ugly basketball, but the Celtics did just enough. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; Celtics' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. The Celtics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
