Boston Celtics Injury Report For Game 6

The Boston Celtics have announced their injury report for Game 6.

On Thursday evening, the Boston Celtics will be in Pennsylvania to face off against the Philadelphia 76ers for Game 6 of their second-round playoff series.  

The Celtics trail 3-2, so they are on the verge of elimination and will need a victory on the road to force a Game 7 back in Boston on Sunday.  

For the game, they have announced their injury report. 

The Celtics have ruled out Danilo Gallinari, while All-Star forward Jaylen Brown is listed as available.   

Therefore, they are essentially fully healthy for the night (considering Gallinari hasn't played in a game this season).

The Celtics are the second seed in the Eastern Conference and beat the Atlanta Hawks in the first round in six games. 

That said, they have looked extremely beatable against the 76ers. 

After losing Game 1 (on their home floor), the Celtics were able to win two games in a row. 

However, the 76ers have responded back with two straight victories of their own. 

Last year, the Celtics made the NBA Finals for the first time since 2010, and they have been to the Conference Finals four times in the previous six seasons. 

Despite being so close, they haven't won an NBA Championship since 2008. 

As for the 76ers, they are the third seed and swept the Brooklyn Nets in the first round (they lost in the second round of the 2022 NBA Playoffs). 

The winner of the series will advance to the Conference Finals and face off against either the New York Knicks or the Miami Heat.
