The NBA Finals are set.
Now that the Dallas Mavericks have beaten the Minnesota Timberwolves to win the Western Conference, they will join the Boston Celtics in a best-of-seven series that begins June 6 in Boston.
Luka Doncic scored 36 points, 20 in the first quarter, to help lift the Mavericks in Game 5. They last reached the Finals when they won in 2011.
Kristaps Porzingis has been out since Game 4 of the first round with a strained calf muscle, but the Celtics have given him a welcome cushion to rest and rehab while going 9-1 and getting nine days off until the Finals. He may not be 100 percent, but expect to see him on the court.
Here's the NBA Finals schedule, with all games broadcast on ABC.
