BOSTON — Despite trailing the Philadelphia 76ers by as many as 18 points on Saturday night, the Boston Celtics had multiple opportunities to extend their season. But, they failed to take advantage of them down the stretch, and the Green Team fell 109-100 in Game 7 of the first-round series at TD Garden.
The disappointing defeat marks the Celtics' first blown 3-1 lead in the playoffs ever. It also resulted in their earliest exit from the postseason since 2021. They had a poor start to the contest but battled back in the second quarter to eventually trail 55-50 at halftime. Boston even got Philly's lead down to 1 point late in the fourth quarter with less than 4 minutes remaining. It almost seemed like the Celtics could complete the comeback when point guard Payton Pritchard attempted an open 3-pointer from the corner with 2:19 left, but the shot didn't fall.
The final score was 109-100 in favor of the Philadelphia 76ers.
The Celtics exited the playoffs early after losing Game 7, marking their first blown 3-1 lead in franchise history.
Jaylen Brown led the Celtics with 33 points, while Tyrese Maxey scored 30 points for the 76ers.
