NBA: Celtics Unleash Depth to Dominate Mavericks
Boston's Superiority Shines in 107-89 Victory
Mavs' Luka-Kyrie Duo Struggles, Celtics Ground Mavericks
In a highly anticipated matchup on June 6, 2024, the Boston Celtics emerged victorious over the Dallas Mavericks, securing a 107-89 triumph. The Celtics' renowned depth proved too much for the Mavericks, as Dallas' star duo of Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving faced challenges in the face of Boston's relentless defense.
The game was a testament to the Celtics' collective effort. Kristaps Porzingis, making his return from a calf injury, led the team with 20 points, including an impressive 18 points in the first half. Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown contributed 17 points each, while Marcus Smart added 16 points and dished out 8 assists.
For the Mavericks, Doncic finished with a respectable 22 points, but his 7-of-21 shooting performance reflected the Celtics' defensive prowess. Irving struggled even more, shooting a mere 4-of-16 from the field and finishing with 13 points. Dallas' big men, notably Dwight Powell and Christian Wood, were also held in check by Boston's physicality.
