On Monday, the Golden State Warriors and Boston Celtics square off in Game 5 of the NBA Finals at the Chase Center in San Francisco, with the series deadlocked 2-2. The Warriors regained home-court advantage in what is now a best-of-three series following an emphatic 107-97 victory in Game 4 at the TD Garden on June 10.
After Boston’s dominating Game 3 victory and reports swirling that Warriors star guard Stephen Curry may be limited in Game 4 after suffering an ankle injury, the Celtics appeared poised to take a 3-1 stranglehold on the series.
