INDIANAPOLIS -- Thanks to some late heroics from Jaylen Brown, the Boston Celtics have advanced to the NBA Finals for a second time in three years.
Brown, who finished with 29 points, had a block on Andrew Nembhard and then hit Derrick White for the game-winning 3-pointer inside the final minute -- a shot that gave Boston its first lead since the opening moments of the second half.
It ended up being the difference in the Celtics' 105-102 victory over the Indiana Pacers in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference finals, as Boston completed the sweep to reach the league's championship round.
