Boston Celtics guard Derrick White scores over Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro during the first half of Game 4 of an NBA basketball first-round game, Monday, April 29, 2024, in Miami.
The Celtics won at Miami for the sixth straight time and improved to 14-3 in their last 17 games on the Heat’s home floor. But it was a costly win, with Kristaps Porzingis going down in the first half with what the team said was a right calf injury. He left the arena in a walking boot, often used as a precaution.“I didn’t see what happened,” Mazzulla said.
Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis aims to score as Miami Heat guard Jaime Jaquez Jr. defends during the first half of Game 4 of an NBA basketball first-round playoff series Monday, April 29, 2024, in Miami. “Offensively, we struggled again,” Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. “We had some decent looks early on, weren’t able to knock those down, and Derrick White was very good tonight — obviously. ... He was just very efficient, very good.
With 5:04 left, there was some more drama after Tatum tried to shoot a 3-pointer moments after a foul was called. Adebayo defended the dead-ball play, and Tatum rolled his left ankle after Adebayo stepped into his landing area. Referees called a flagrant-1 on Adebayo, and a technical on Horford for reacting.Adebayo didn’t want to discuss the explanation he got as to why what he did merited a flagrant-foul designation. “We’re just going to move on from that,” he said.
