Celtics set up NBA finals with Warriors after holding off Heat in Game 7

• Boston win 100-96 in Miami to secure best-of-seven series 4-3
• Celtics return to the finals for first time since 2010

Jayson Tatum scored 26 points, Jaylen Brown and Marcus Smart each added 24 and the Boston Celtics held off a frantic rally in the final seconds to beat the Miami Heat 100-96 on Sunday night and reach the NBA finals for the first time since 2010.

Al Horford added 14 rebounds for the Celtics, who never trailed on the way to pulling off a Game 7 win on the road - and not including the bubble, that was the first such victory for the storied franchise since beating Milwaukee for the 1974 NBA title.
