The defending champions Boston Celtics look to get their first-round series against the Orlando Magic done and dusted tonight at TD Garden.
Tonight’s matchup features two dynamic duos — what one might consider the tandem of today, Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, and the tandem of the future, Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner.
The two magic stars are having a phenomenal postseason, averaging a combined 58 points per game. That’s the highest of any duo in the 2025 playoffs.
But the Celtics are a machine built to win now. The Magic are a piece or two away from being contenders.
As for now, they can take notes from the Celtics on how to get it done. In Game 4, the Celtics broke a 91-all tie in the fourth and closed the game out by scoring 16 of the final 23 points.
The Magic will lose, but not without a fight. Expect a margin of 10 points or below.
