The Celtics ensured there will be a Game 5 in the Celtics-Knicks second round series with a 115-93 blowout win in Game 3 on Saturday afternoon. Boston now trails the series 2-1.
The NBA announced Saturday that the Celtics-Knicks Game 5 matchup at TD Garden will start at 7 p.m. on Wednesday night. It will be the first half of a double header on the night, with the Timberwolves and Warriors facing off at 9:30 p.m. at the Target Center. Both games will be shown on TNT with Kevin Harlan and Reggie Miller on the call.
The start times for the remainder of the series are known except for a potential Game 6 which remains TBD. Here’s a look at the remaining schedule.

The Celtics will look to even the series on Monday night in New York in their quest to become just the sixth team in NBA history to win a seven-game series after dropping the first two games at home. Saturday’s win was a strong start on that front as five different Celtics scored in double figures in the win.
