The Boston Celtics secured their spot in the Eastern Conference semifinals with a dominant 120-89 victory over the Orlando Magic in Game 5. Despite a slow start, where they failed to make a three-pointer in the first half, the Celtics erupted in the second half, outscoring the Magic 73-40.
Jayson Tatum led the charge with 35 points, 10 assists, and 8 rebounds, while Jaylen Brown added 23 points. The turning point came when Paolo Banchero picked up his fifth foul in the third quarter, allowing Boston to go on a 24-4 run and take control of the game.
The Magic struggled offensively, shooting 8-of-38 from three-point range and 37.5% from the field, failing to capitalize on Boston’s early shooting woes. Meanwhile, the Celtics adjusted their strategy, focusing on ball movement and inside scoring before finally finding their rhythm from deep, finishing 13-of-24 from three.
Angel Reese Gets Praise From Sky GM
In a recent press interview, Chicago Sky’s General Manager Jeff Pagliocca praised Angel Reese and Kamila Cardoso for standing out during the team’s training camp in preparation for the 2025 WNBA season.
“Definitely a lot more maturity,” Pagliocca said. “A lot more relaxed understanding of the game, the pace of it, the flow. And it’s been two new coaching staffs, and you know, they both adjusted quickly again. Because you know, they come from winning programs in the past in college, and they’ve assimilated quickly.”
“But you know, they both had very good offseasons. Kamilla and China (women’s league), and Angel and Unrivaled (league). So, they’ve grown as players, they’re coming in in shape, and they’ve impacted the both camp days.”
During the 2024 season, Angel Reese made an immediate impact as a rookie for the Chicago Sky, showcasing her dominance in the paint. She averaged 13.6 points and 13.1 rebounds per game, setting a single-season rebounding record for the franchise and finishing as one of the league’s top rebounders.
