Celtics Bench Shines in Upset Win

0:00It's April 13th. This is Boston Celtics News Today, AI-powered stories from Inside Your Team. The Boston Celtics wrapped their regular season with a gritty win over the Orlando Magic, one-thirteen to one-eight at TD Garden. Without Jason Tatum most of the year nursing that Achilles injury, they rested their starters and rode out their bench, the cheapest active roster, in the league. Baylor Shireman dropped 30 points while Ron Harper Jr. and Luca Garza each added 27 to seal the upset. Earlier this week, the Celtics rarely had their full squad intact, making these bench moments rare gold. That final game gave the reserves a spotlight to shine after spotty minutes all season. Players like Harper, talked up the fire in the huddle, channeling all those sideline knights into pure hustle. They stepped up big, proving their worth right when it counted most. This victory fits Boston's whole vibe this year, beating the odds with straight tenacity. No underdog mindset, they expected to compete and win every time.
