The Celtics dropped Game 4 as the Raptors successfully flipped the series back to 2-2 going in Game 5. Jaylen Brown struggled immensely from the field, starting 0-for-8 from three, as Kemba Walker lamented only taking nine threes after the game.

Boston left with a general sentiment that they beat themselves on the offensive end, though Kyle Lowry, Fred VanVleet and Pascal Siakam continued to improve for Toronto in the second half. They’ll face off on Monday.
