After a 16-year wait, the Boston Celtics have again been crowned NBA champions. The Celtics dominated their opponents in the playoffs, securing victories in four or five games in each series. Along their journey to the championship, they overcame matchups against the Miami Heat, Cleveland Cavaliers, Indiana Pacers, and Dallas Mavericks.
Boston was led by their All-Star duo Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown. Both players deserved the NBA Finals MVP award, but Brown received the honor for his stellar defense of Mavericks star Luka Doncic and his higher shooting efficiency.
During the Celtics' recent run, Payton Pritchard, the backup point guard, played a minor role but significantly impacted by hitting two incredible buzzer-beating shots in Game 2 and Game 5. His shot in Game 5 was particularly memorable and genuinely stood out.
