Celtics' Path Smoothed by Injuries to Opposing Ball Clubs
Pacers' Haliburton Injury a Major Blow
The Boston Celtics have benefited from a string of injuries to opposing ball clubs, which has cleared the path for them to improve their record to 3-0.
Miami Heat
The Miami Heat have been without star guard Jaime Jaquez Jr. due to a knee injury. Jaquez Jr. is a key contributor to the Heat's offense and his absence has been a major factor in their 1-2 start.
Indiana Pacers
The Indiana Pacers have also been dealt a major blow with the injury to Tyrese Haliburton. Haliburton is the Pacers' leading scorer and his absence has left a huge void in their lineup. The Pacers appeared deflated after Haliburton went down with a scary leg injury in their game against the Celtics on Tuesday.
Conclusion
The Celtics have been fortunate to avoid any major injuries so far this season, and they have taken advantage of the injuries to their opponents to improve their record. However, the Celtics should not take their good fortune for granted. Injuries can strike at any time, and the Celtics will need to be prepared to deal with adversity if they want to continue their success.
