Boston Celtics and Orlando Magic arrive at TD Garden again for Game 5 for a potential finale of the first-round playoff series in Eastern Conference. The reigning champions are ahead 3-1 in the series and are just one win away to step closer towards defending their title. After facing a first blow in Game 3, the Celtics came back to gain winning momentum.

It has been a roller-coaster ride for the Magic, who had a chance in previous game to make it 2-2. Celtics held a 79-75 lead heading into the fourth quarter and Orlando failed to take charge in the game. In previous two home matchups, the Magic looked like an improved side but they still need their best offense to surprise Boston at TD Garden.

Since 2010, the Magic reached the NBA playoffs four times and are yet to crack the first round. They held Caves to seven games last year but there is a different story in 2025.

Let’s go through the major updates from both teams’ injury report and its impact on their performance.
