The Golden State Warriors are just one victory removed from earning a new NBA title after their 104-94 win over the Boston Celtics in Game 5 of the NBA Finals Monday night. And one game after Stephen Curry won Game 4 for them, they did it without another huge Steph night. What are the key takeaways from a big win at Chase Center?When Warriors fans look back at this postseason run, they should always remember that Andrew Wiggins showed up in the biggest moments.
For a large stretches of Game 5, especially in the first half, Wiggins was the best player on the court for the Warriors. With another stellar performance on Thursday night, perhaps the first-time All-Star will be able to call himself an NBA champion too.On the three-year anniversary of his devastating ACL injury suffered in Game 6 of the 2019 NBA Finals against the Raptors, Klay Thompson was in rare form.
Thompson kept the Warriors in the game when the Celtics caught fire from 3-point range in the third quarter, scoring 10 of his 21 points in that same period. With his sinking one big shot after another, Golden State was plus-13 in his 40 minutes on the court.
