The Mavs avoided getting swept in Game 4, but now they still have a mountain to climb if they want to win the NBA Championship.
BOSTON — In addition to airing every game of the 2024 NBA Finals on our station, WFAA is also hosting a special presentation called “The Pregame” before each and every matchup in the series. Head here for more information.
The Dallas Mavericks were able to extend the 2024 NBA Finals on Friday night with a dominant Game 4 victory.
Now, the Mavs must look to Game 5, where they will head back to Boston and face a Celtics team that is looking to get right after getting pummeled — historically — in Dallas.
While no team has ever come back and won a playoff series after going down 3-0, the Mavs seem after Friday night to be taking this one game at a time and controlling what they can control.
So, here’s everything you need to know about when and what time the game starts:
What time is Game 5 of the NBA Finals?
