Boston Celtics head coach Brad Stevens decided he needed to downsize in order to match the Milwaukee Bucks.
Stevens turned to Semi Ojeleye for his first career start in a pivotal Game 5, as the rookie forward replaced the ineffectual Aron Baynes, for whom there was never quite a definitive role due to the Bucks' lack of interior post-up threat.
Ojeleye was a useful defender off the bench this season, although he was mostly limited to a catch-and-shoot role on offense. He averaged 2.7 points in 15.8 points per game.
