In the pivotal and deciding Game 5 victory over the Orlando Magic on Tuesday night, the Boston Celtics took over momentum when Magic star Paolo Banchero picked up a fifth foul in the third quarter. It was in that third quarter that Boston would outscore Orlando 36-13, finding a rhythm with their 3-point shooting, not only leading them to a game victory, but closing out their first round series at home.
Following the end of the series, Magic head coach Jamahl Mosley spoke to the media and said he believed that the fifth foul call on Bachero changed the entirety of the series between the two teams.
