The Eastern Conference playoff bracket is down to two teams: the Celtics and Pacers.

Indiana overcame a 3-2 series deficit in Round 2, winning back-to-back games to send New York into the offseason. The Pacers became one of two road teams to win a Game 7 on the same day for the first time in playoff history, joining the Timberwolves, who beat the Nuggets in Denver.

The Celtics, meanwhile, have had nearly a full week to rest and prepare for their next opponent after eliminating the Cavaliers in five games. Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown led the way for Boston, averaging a combined 50.2 points per game against Cleveland.

The winner of this series will advance to the 2024 NBA Finals and face either the Mavericks or Timberwolves.

Here is everything you need to know about the NBA Playoff series between the Celtics and Pacers, including TV and streaming options for each game.
