First Quarter Surge Extends Lead

Boston Celtics Finish First Quarter with 67-46 Advantage

The Boston Celtics have taken a commanding lead in Game 5 of the NBA Finals, closing out the first quarter with a 9-0 run. The Celtics now hold a 67-46 advantage over the Dallas Mavericks heading into the second quarter.

The surge was sparked by a series of Celtics turnovers, including a steal by Marcus Smart that led to a fast-break layup. The Celtics also connected on three consecutive three-pointers, with Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, and Derrick White all contributing from beyond the arc.

The Celtics' defense also played a key role in the run, forcing the Mavericks into several missed shots and turnovers. The Celtics held the Mavericks to just 21.1% shooting in the first quarter, including 0-for-12 from three-point range.

The Celtics will look to maintain their momentum and extend their lead in the second quarter. The Mavericks, on the other hand, will need to make some major adjustments if they hope to come back in this game.
