Al Horford added 23 points and 11 rebounds for the Celtics. Horford made 8 of 10 field goal attempts, including 6 of 8 3-point attempts.

The Celtics used a 7-0 spurt at the start of the third quarter to take a 62-52 lead. It was the first time either team led by double figures.

Boston’s advantage peaked at 21 points, 89-68, following a layup by Robert Williams III with 2:32 remaining in the third. The Celtics outrebounded the Cavaliers 14-4 in the quarter.

Cleveland led 28-26 after the first quarter, but Boston had a 55-52 lead at halftime. There were 10 lead changes and seven ties in the first half.
