Dereck Lively II Makes Finals History In Game 3
6 months agoDallas Mavericks center Dereck Lively II sparked back into life in Game 3 of the NBA Finals against Boston on Wednesday, producing an 11-point, 13-rebound double-double off the bench in 30 minutes. The 20-year-old rookie became the youngest player ever with double-digit rebounds in an NBA Finals game. Lively II wrapped up his line with two assists and one steal, shooting 5-for-6 from the field. The young center now boasts three double-doubles for the 2024 postseason. He played a big part in Dallas' fourth-quarter comeback effort on Wednesday, which should secure Lively II a big role in Friday's elimination game.
