NBA Finals 2024 Schedule Announced, ABC to Broadcast Exclusively
Depth Proves Key as Celtics Triumph Over Mavericks in Game 1
YouTube TV Returns as Presenting Sponsor for Finals
The 2024 NBA Finals will tip off on June 6, exclusively on ABC. The Boston Celtics, powered by their depth, overcame the dynamic duo of Luka Dončić and Kyrie Irving from the Dallas Mavericks in the series opener.
The Celtics' balanced attack proved too much for the Mavericks, as they distributed the scoring throughout their lineup. Meanwhile, Dončić and Irving struggled to find their rhythm, combining for just 37 points on 32% shooting.
The Celtics' defense also played a pivotal role, suffocating the Mavericks' big men, Kristaps Porziņģis and Dwight Powell. The pair combined for only 12 points and 11 rebounds on the night.
As the series shifts to Boston for Game 2, the Celtics will look to capitalize on their momentum and take a commanding 2-0 lead. The Mavericks, however, have shown resilience throughout the playoffs and will be determined to bounce back.
With the NBA Finals presented by YouTube TV, fans can expect a thrilling and competitive series that will culminate in determining the league's champion.
