Celtics forward Jayson Tatum struggled offensively in the first two games of the 2024 NBA Finals, but he scored 31 points to help Boston take a commanding 3-0 lead in Game 3 on Wednesday. Tatum will try to lead the Celtics to their 18th NBA championship in Game 4 on Friday night as the Mavericks hope to keep their season alive.

Irving played a playoff-high 45 minutes on Wednesday, and he will get limited rest Friday as Dallas tries to keep its season alive.
