The Celtics (56-20) returned home from their perfect 6-0 Road Trip and had their season-high 9-Game Win Streak come to an end with a 124-103 loss to the Miami Heat Wednesday night at TD Garden. The Celtics were without Kristaps Porzingis, Jrue Holiday and Al Horford. It's the Celtics 5th home loss of the season when coming off a road trip. With the loss, the Celtics 6-Game win streak against Miami ends and the Celtics go 3-1 vs. the Heat in the Regular Season.
