The Celtics will be without Jrue Holiday for Game 5 against the Magic, as the guard is still dealing with a hamstring strain.

Another factor was that Jrue Holiday did not play, as he was absent because of a hamstring injury. The Celtics could have used Holiday's ballhandling and playmaking in his absence, and he may have made all the difference,

Jrue Holiday has been ruled out and will miss his third straight game with a right hamstring strain, while Jaylen Brown is listed as questionable with a right knee posterior impingement.
