Philadelphia defeated Boston 111–97 on April 21 at TD Garden, with the 76ers' balanced offensive attack overwhelming a struggling Celtics defense. Sixers guards Tyrese Maxey and Veteran Edgecombe combined for 59 points, while Boston's Jayson Brown led the hosts with 36 points in a losing effort alongside Jayson Tatum's 19. Philadelphia shot 47.8 percent from the field and made 19 three-pointers compared to Boston's 13, controlling the game through a dominant second quarter where they outscored the Celtics 37–26. The 76ers' defensive rating of 107.9 held Boston to just 97 points, well below the 218.5-point Vegas total, while turning the ball over only seven times to Boston's eleven. Despite Brown's scoring, the Celtics managed just 39.3 percent shooting and allowed Philadelphia to dictate pace and spacing. The loss drops Boston further in playoff positioning as Philadelphia's depth and efficiency surge heading into the final stretch.
