by April 2nd, 2019

Al Horford scored a triple double to power Boston Celtics to a  110-105 Triumph over the Miami Heat in the NBA last night. 

He netted 19 points to go along with 11 rebounds and 10 assists in what was just the second triple-double of his 12-year career.

Boston has a big first-half lead, but Miami came battling back in the fourth. The Heat’s comeback was fuelled by Goran Dragic’s 30-point performance, but the Celtics simply had too many options, even without Jaylen Brown (back).

Miami (38-39) hold the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, but the Magic are just a half-game back. The scramble for a postseason appearance could get hectic as the regular season comes to a close.

Boston (46-32), the Eastern Conference’s fourth seed, are even with Indiana with four games to play before the playoffs.

Eric Bledsoe poured in a game-high 29 points in the Milwaukee Bucks’ 131-121 win over the Brooklyn Nets.

Robin Lopez scored a season-high 29 points in the Chicago Bulls’ 113-105 loss to the New York Knicks.

Danny Green’s season-high of 29 points helped lift the Toronto Raptors past the Magic 121-109.

Cory Joseph tallied four points on two-of-nine shooting in the Indiana Pacers’ 111-102 win over the Detroit Pistons.

Jonah Bolden scored two points on one-of-six shooting in the Philadelphia 76ers’ 122-102 blowout loss to the Dallas Mavericks.

Tyus Jones fooled Damian Lillard with a step-back jumper in the Minnesota Timberwolves’ 132-122 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers.
