NBA: The Boston Celtics are heading back to the NBA Finals for the second time in three years after defeating the Indiana Pacers 105-102 in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference finals.
Anthony Edwards scored 29 points and Karl-Anthony Towns produced a crucial late burst of long-range shooting as the Minnesota Timberwolves defeated the Dallas Mavericks 105-100 on Tuesday to keep their NBA Western Conference finals series alive.
But there was still time for Dallas to give the third seeds a nervous finale, closing to within three at 100-97 before Edwards’ sublime pull-up jumper from 21 feet put the Timberwolves five points clear with 40 seconds left. “I think I was aggressive. I didn’t shy away from the ball and they kept giving it to me and trusting me,” added Edwards.
