Boston is 3-0 this postseason following a loss, however, and has won 10 of its last 11 games after a loss. The C's are also expected to get a boost from point guard Marcus Smart, who missed Game 1 due to a mid-foot sprain but is listed as probable for Thursday's Game 2 at FTX Arena.

Al Horford (health and safety protocols) is listed as doubtful, so the Celtics will need big man Robert Williams to step up again after tallying a playoff career-high 18 points in 28 minutes Tuesday night.
The spotlight will also be on Jayson Tatum, who scored 29 points in Game 1 but committed seven turnovers and was outdueled by Heat star Jimmy Butler (41 points, nine rebounds, five assists, four steals, three blocks).
