Mavs-Celtics Game 3: What time does the NBA Finals tip off?

Can the Mavs bounce back from an 0-2 deficit as the series comes to Dallas?

DALLAS — In addition to airing every game of the 2024 NBA Finals on our station, WFAA is also hosting a special presentation called "The Pregame" before each and every matchup in the series. Head here for more information.

The Dallas Mavericks are looking to right the ship against the Boston Celtics as they gear up for Game 3 of the NBA Finals.

The Mavs dropped the first two games in Boston and they are now sitting at 0-2 as the series comes to Dallas. They will need to make something happen in Games 3 and 4 if they want to have any hope of bringing the city its first NBA Championship since 2011. 

WFAA will have coverage throughout the NBA Finals at WFAA.com/Mavericks.
