Boston Celtics Defeat Dallas Mavericks in Game 3 of NBA Finals

WEB: Boston’s Depth Shines in Victory as Dallas Mavericks’ Luka-Kyrie Duo Faces Challenges

The Boston Celtics outmuscled the Dallas Mavericks in a dominant Game 3 of the NBA Finals, taking a commanding 3-0 lead in the series. Despite a valiant effort from the Luka Doncic-Kyrie Irving duo, the Celtics' superior depth proved to be a deciding factor.

The Celtics' defense held Doncic and Irving in check, forcing them into uncharacteristic turnovers and limiting their scoring efficiency. Meanwhile, the Celtics' bench provided a much-needed spark, with Grant Williams and Derrick White combining for 27 crucial points.

"Our guys really stepped up tonight," said Celtics head coach Brad Stevens. "We knew Dallas would make a run at some point, but our depth and experience allowed us to weather the storm."
