The Boston Celtics are moving on to the Eastern Conference Finals again.
They closed out the Cleveland Cavaliers in a convincing fashion, taking care of business at home to make sure this series didn’t go any further.
Joe Mazzulla’s squad is now 8-2 in ten postseason contests this season, and they’ve needed the fewest games to move on than any other team in the Association.
That gives their stars a little time off to enjoy themselves, heal and restore their bodies, and get ready for the upcoming matchup, which is a luxury no other team has.
With that in mind, Celtics stars Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum made sure to reach out to Russell Wilson, Ciara, and their family, who were sitting courtside to watch them beat the Cavaliers (via Celtics on NBC Sports Boston).

Tatum and Brown actually have something in common with Wilson this season.
The former Super Bowl champion will need to prove himself again after being the Denver Broncos’ fall guy, and he’ll have a huge chip on his shoulder when he takes the field for the Pittsburgh Steelers a couple of months from now.
The Celtics duo, on the other hand, needs to get over the hump to turn the narrative around about them once and for all, as they’ve fallen short of their goal way too many times in their young careers already.
Perhaps Wilson can give them a few pointers as to how to take that final step and finally win a championship.
