Celtics Stay Alive as Timberwolves Advance to Western Conference Final

Posted : 15 May 2025

The Boston Celtics kept their playoff hopes alive with a dominant performance against the New York Knicks, winning 127-102 at TD Garden. Despite being down 3-1 in the best-of-seven Eastern Conference semi-final and missing star forward Jayson Tatum due to an Achilles injury that required surgery, the Celtics rallied behind Derrick White, who scored 34 points, and Jaylen Brown, who added 26 points, 12  assists, and eight rebounds. Coach Joe Mazzulla praised the team’s determination, stating they made the crucial plays needed to extend the series.

 

Game five is set to take place in New York on Friday night. The Celtics will need another strong showing to continue their playoff run as they fight to overcome their deficit in the series. Their recent performance showed resilience, even in the absence of their key player, and reignited hope among fans that they could still mount a comeback.

 

In the Western Conference, the Minnesota Timberwolves booked their place in the conference finals with a 121-110 win over the Golden State Warriors, closing out the series 4-1. Julius Randle led the way with 29 points, while Anthony Edwards contributed 22 points and 12 assists at the Target Center. The Timberwolves are now awaiting the winner of the Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Denver Nuggets series, with Oklahoma currently leading 3-2.

 

Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch and his team were praised for their unity and perseverance throughout a challenging season without resorting to trades or staff changes. The Warriors, meanwhile, struggled without Stephen Curry, who suffered a hamstring injury in game one. Coach Steve Kerr acknowledged that health and timely execution often determine playoff success, offering credit to Minnesota for their accomplishment.
