The Boston Celtics took the court to face their former player Terry Rozier as a member of the Miami Heat for the first time, and things could have gone a lot better for Miami on the defensive end of the court. Even with the Celtics losing Kristaps Porzingis to injury midway through the game, the Heat struggled to contain Boston while hitting at a respectable rate from everywhere on the floor.
The Celtics shot a sizzling 63.7% from the floor and 55% from deep while missing just one of their 20 free throws. Winning the rebounding battle by 16 boards and the march of dimes by 11, Boston never trailed by more than 2 in a game they led by as much as 34 points.
Let’s take a look at some of the best moments captured in images in the Celtics’ 45th game of the 2023-24 NBA season vs. the Heat.
