It was an all-out duel from start to finish as the Celtics held off the Warriors 116-100 in Game 3 of the 2022 NBA Finals.
The Warriors were unable to contain the Celtics, who were hitting on all cylinders on Wednesday, out-rebounding (47-31) and outscoring the Dubs in the paint (52-26). And while the Warriors attempted a second half comeback, it was not enough to overcome the Celtics in Game 3 of the best-of-seven series.
