The 2024 NBA Finals have reached a pivotal moment as the Dallas Mavericks prepare for Game 3 against the Boston Celtics. With the Mavericks trailing 2-0, they face a daunting task of turning around their fortunes in this high-stakes matchup.
The upcoming game will take place in Dallas, giving the Mavericks an opportunity to use their home court advantage to gain some momentum. However, history is not on their side as teams that are down 2-0 have only won the Finals 13.9% of the time.
To make matters worse, Kristaps Porziņģis is set to miss Game 3 due to a rare injury, leaving Luka Dončić and Kyrie Irving to carry more of the scoring load. The team will need additional support from role players such as Dwight Powell and Tim Hardaway Jr. if they want to pull off an upset and avoid falling behind 3-0 with Game 4 just days away on Friday night.
NBA experts Jason Fischer, Vincent Goodwill, and Ben Rohrbach will be providing live updates and analysis throughout Game 3, helping viewers understand what’s happening on the court and how it could impact the series moving forward. The absence of Porzingis presents a challenge for both teams as they look to secure a crucial win in this critical matchup.
