WARRIORS EDGE CLOSER

STEPHEN Curry and Andrew Wiggins starred as the Golden State Warriors moved to the brink of the NBA finals with a 109-100 victory over the Dallas Mavericks.

The clinical Warriors performance on the road in Dallas gives Steve Kerr’s team a commanding 3-0 lead in the best-of-seven Western Conference finals series.

No team in the 75-year history of the NBA has ever successfully overturned a 3-0 series deficit in the playoffs. Curry led the Warriors scoring with 31 points, 11 assists and five rebounds while Wiggins was exceptional with 27 points and 11 rebounds.

Luka Doncic again delivered a monumental display for Dallas with 40 points, but the Slovenian star will need to conjure something even more miraculous to prevent the Warriors from advancing to a finals showdown against either Boston or Miami.
