The Celtics beat the Heat 116-99 in game 4 of the Eastern Conference Final

The Boston Celtics have taken out game 4 of the Eastern Conference Final after beating Miami Heat 116-99.

But it has not taken away the risk as the Heat are still one win away from booking a place in the NBA Finals.

The Celtics will need to keep the winning momentum in the next game to keep their hopes alive of reaching the Grand Final as the Heat are still leading the series 3-1.

Celtics’ Jayson Tatum finished with 34 points, 11 rebounds and 7 assists to force a Game 5.

Jimmy Butler dropped a team-high 29 points for the Heat but it was the team defence of the Celtics that denied the Heat a win.

Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Final between the Heat and the Celtics will be at 12.30pm Friday.
