With the NBA draft just a day away, it’s still unclear who the Orlando Magic will take No. 1. Three players are in the mix.

Golden State has its biggest stars returning, but major free agent decisions to make, while Boston will need to find ways to be more consistent.

Missing out in 2015 when Andre Iguodala won the award and in 2017 and 2018 when Kevin Durant won the award, Curry won the 2022 Finals MVP hands down.

If Boston’s offense is humming, the NBA Finals is headed for a Game 7. If not, Golden State will win Game 6 and another title Thursday at TD Garden.

In his first season as Celtics president of basketball operations, Brad Stevens improved the roster and gave Ime Udoka the autonomy to coach his way.

On a night when Steph Curry was ordinary, Andrew Wiggins was extraordinary to lead the Warriors to the brink of the NBA championship.

Golden State moved one win away from its fourth championship in eight years after beating Boston 104-94 in Game 5 of the NBA Finals for a 3-2 lead.

Three years ago Monday, Klay Thompson tore the ACL in his left knee against the Toronto Raptors in Game 6 of the 2019 NBA Finals.

Golden State wouldn’t have left Boston with a 107-97 victory if Wiggins didn’t have the tremendous Game 4 he did.
