After a dominant 124-103 victory by the Dallas Mavericks over the Minnesota Timberwolves in Game 5 of the Western Conference finals, the 2024 NBA playoffs have one series left, the NBA Finals.
The Boston Celtics swept the Indiana Pacers in the Eastern Conference finals to secure their second NBA Finals appearance in the past three seasons. The Mavericks' 4-1 series win over the Timberwolves gives Dallas their first Finals berth since 2011, when the Dirk Nowitzki-led team defeated the LeBron James-led Miami Heat for the lone title in franchise history.
