The Boston Celtics have received a significant boost with the return of reserve big man Xavier Tillman, who has been upgraded for Game 2 against the Indiana Pacers. This addition gives the Celtics another valuable option off the bench.
While Al Horford will continue to start and Luke Kornet is expected to be the first big man off the bench, Tillman’s availability provides coach Joe Mazzulla with more flexibility in his rotation. Tillman has contributed spot minutes throughout the playoffs, and his presence is a positive development for the team’s depth.
In Game 1, the Celtics secured a hard-fought victory over the Pacers with a dramatic finish. Jaylen Brown made crucial plays to force overtime, and Jayson Tatum sealed the win, giving the Celtics a 1-0 lead in the series. As they prepare for Game 2, the Celtics aim to maintain their home-court advantage and build on their momentum.
