Myles Turner also contributed significantly to the Pacers' win, adding 17 points and 10 rebounds.

However, turnovers proved costly for the Celtics, ultimately leading to their defeat. The disappointment was palpable among the Celtics, who missed the opportunity to advance to the next round.

In another quarterfinal, the New Orleans Pelicans defeated the Sacramento Kings, with Brandon Ingram scoring 30 points. The Pacers will now face either the Milwaukee Bucks or the New York Knicks in the semifinals.
