Final Score: Celtics 87, Cavaliers 79
The Boston Celtics have advanced to the 2018 NBA Finals after defeating the Cleveland Cavaliers in a thrilling Game 7 on Sunday night. The Celtics won 87-79, led by Kyrie Irving's 24 points and 10 assists. LeBron James had 27 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists for the Cavaliers, but it wasn't enough to overcome the Celtics' balanced attack.
The game was close throughout, with neither team leading by more than eight points at any point. The Celtics took a 10-point lead in the fourth quarter, but the Cavaliers rallied to tie the game with just over two minutes remaining. However, Irving hit a clutch three-pointer with 1:06 left to give the Celtics the lead for good.
The Celtics will now face the Golden State Warriors in the NBA Finals, which begin Thursday night in Oakland. The Celtics are making their first NBA Finals appearance since 2010, while the Warriors are seeking their third consecutive title.
