Boston Celtics seasons
< 1993–94 1995–96 >

The 1994–95 Boston Celtics season was the 49th season of the Boston Celtics in the National Basketball Association (NBA).It was also the last season of play at Boston Garden. Prior to the season, the Celtics acquired former All-NBA forward Dominique Wilkins, a controversial move late in Wilkins' career. Despite finishing 12 games under .500, the Celtics qualified for the playoffs as the #8 seed and earned a road win over #1 seed Orlando in Game 2 (seizing the "theoretical home court advantage" for the series). However, Orlando defeated the Celtics at Boston Garden in both games 3 and 4 to close out the series.
