NBA Finals Game 5 live updates: How to watch Celtics vs. Mavericks, predictions, odds

play

The Dallas Mavericks are still breathing – barely.

The Mavs kept the Boston Celtics from a sweep and – for the moment – their 18th NBA championship with a lopsided 122-84 win in Game 4 on Friday. Dallas’ star guard Luka Doncic led the way with 29 points, including 25 in the first half, with five assists, five rebounds and three steals.

The Mavericks still have to overcome long odds. No team down 3-0 in a series has come back to win it, and only four teams have forced a Game 7. The last time it happened was last season when the Celtics pushed the Eastern Conference finals to seven games after losing the first three to the Miami Heat, but Boston lost Game 7.

Follow along for the latest information, updates, analysis and highlights.
