  • Kemba Walker scored 32 points and Jayson Tatum added 28 and 15 rebounds as the Boston Celtics beat the Philadelphia 76ers 110-106 Sunday to reach the second round of the NBA playoffs. The Celtics swept the best-of-seven Eastern Conference first-round series four games to none -- the first sweep in 15 playoff series between the East rivals. For Walker, who arrived in Boston after eight seasons of frustration with the Charlotte Hornets, it was a first NBA playoff series win. "It feels good," Walker said, although he wasn't going into full-on celebration mode. "The work's not done," he added. "We won a series, but we're still looking forward to some more tough ones." With their backs against the wall, Joel Embiid and the 76ers kept it close and trailed by just two points late in the third quarter before forward Tobias Harris took a hard fall under the basket, his head slamming the hardwood. Harris was able to leave the court under his own steam, holding a towel to his left eye and temple, and returned after treatment for what the team called a laceration over his left eye. But the Celtics closed the third quarter on a 12-0 run that effectively spelled the end of the 76ers' hopes. "I feel like the game flipped when Tobias went out," Sixers coach Brett Brown said. "It was a two-point game, three-point game at that stage. Up until that moment, I felt pretty good about what we were doing." Embiid, desperate to avoid being swept, finished with 30 points, 10 rebounds and five assists for Philadelphia. Harris scored 20 as six 76ers players scored in double figures -- but the absence of injured Ben Simmons was a glaring problem for Philadelphia defensively and it was the Celtics who advanced to a second-round clash with either the defending champion Toronto Raptors or Brooklyn. The Raptors took a 3-0 series lead into their game against the Nets later Sunday. bb/js
