Low-Scoring Affair Ends in Celtics Victory

In a tightly contested Game 4, the Boston Celtics emerged victorious over the Dallas Mavericks, solidifying their 3-1 series lead. The final score of 93-107 may not tell the full story of the game, as the Celtics' bench proved to be the difference-maker in the second half.

Celtics Bench Shines in Second Half

With the Celtics starters struggling to find their rhythm, coach Joe Mazzulla made a bold move by removing them from the game with just over five minutes remaining in the third quarter. The move paid off as the Celtics' bench, led by Derrick White and Grant Williams, provided a much-needed spark. White scored 12 points in the second half, while Williams added 11.

The Celtics' bench outscored the Mavericks' reserves 36-21 in the second half, providing the momentum that the team needed to close out the game.
