The Boston Celtics return home and will get Rajon Rondo back for Game 3 against the Atlanta Hawks.
While Rondo's return is certain, Ray Allen's status is still up in the air. Allen is dealing with a sore right ankle, which he's already stated will require surgery to remove bone spurs after the season. Allen did go through a full practice on Thursday, improving his chances of joining the Celtics for Game 3 but he will likely be a game-time decision again. Schedule and broadcast information for Game 3 below:
Game Date/Time: Friday, 7:30 p.m. ET
Venue: TD Garden, Boston, Ma.
TV: ESPN
