The Boston Celtics dominated the Philadelphia 76ers 128–96 on April 26 at Wells Fargo Center, a 32-point rout that fell well short of the Vegas total of 212.5. Payton Pritchard led Boston with 32 points while Jayson Tatum added 30, combining to power an efficient offensive performance. The Celtics shot 48.3 percent from the field and buried 24 three-pointers, controlling the glass with 51 rebounds against Philadelphia's 30. Boston's third quarter proved decisive, outscoring the 76ers 39–36 to seize control, though the visitors' 12 turnovers suggested some sloppiness despite their dominance. Joel Embiid paced Philadelphia with 26 points and Tyrese Maxey contributed 22, but the 76ers' 41.3 field-goal percentage and nine three-pointers couldn't match Boston's firepower. Philadelphia's defensive rating ballooned to 131.5 while Boston's offense registered a 131.5 rating, underscoring the Celtics' superiority on both ends. The lopsided victory signals Boston's postseason form remains formidable heading into deeper playoff rounds.
