Celtics Depth Overwhelms Mavs in Game 2

Brown, Porzingis Lead Boston to 2-0 Series Lead

The Boston Celtics showcased their impressive depth and resilience in Game 2 of the NBA Finals, securing a 107-89 victory over the Dallas Mavericks on Sunday night.

Luka-Kyrie Duo Falters

The highly-anticipated matchup featuring the dynamic duo of Luka Dončić and Kyrie Irving failed to live up to expectations. Dončić struggled with foul trouble, scoring just 18 points, while Irving was held to 19 points on inefficient shooting.

Celtics Dominate the Paint

Boston's big men played a pivotal role in the victory. Al Horford and Tristan Thompson combined for 20 rebounds and 12 points, while Kristaps Porzingis made an immediate impact off the bench, adding 20 points.

Dallas Leaves Points on the Table

The Mavericks left a significant number of points on the table, shooting a dismal 3-of-11 from the free-throw line. Their poor shooting performance and turnovers allowed the Celtics to pull away in the second half.

Jaylen Brown Shines

Jaylen Brown was the leading scorer for the Celtics, contributing 22 points on efficient 9-of-17 shooting. His ability to create his own shot and penetrate the Mavericks defense proved invaluable.
