BOSTON -- The stars were certainly out with several high-profile sports stars attending Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals between the Celtics and the Indiana Pacers.

There's more of the same in Game 2, just to the tune of different stars.

Four-time Grammy award-winner Ed Sheeran stopped by TD Garden to take in the pivotal playoff matchup before headlining the opening night of "Boston Calling" at Harvard University this weekend.

Elsewhere, several New England Patriots players made the trip during a productive week of OTA's down in Foxboro. Former Patriots head coach Bill Belichick also returned to a TD Garden suite with president of basketball operations Brad Stevens to take in Game 2.
