    Warriors vs. Celtics live score, updates, highlights from Game 5 of NBA Finals

    The Warriors and Celtics are headed back to San Francisco for a pivotal Game 5 with the NBA Finals tied at 2-2.

    After Stephen Curry put forth one of the best performances of his illustrious career to carry Golden State to a win over Boston in Game 4 on Friday, the Warriors will have a chance to take a 3-2 lead on their home floor.

    Boston will be looking for more from superstar forward Jayson Tatum, who has yet to have a breakout game on the biggest stage. After letting Game 4 slip away from them on their home floor, the Celtics will try and steal another game on the road with hopes of having the opportunity to raise the Larry O’Brien trophy back in Boston in Game 6.

    Let this serve as your reminder that the team that wins Game 5 in a seven-game series that is tied at 2-2 goes on to win the series 82 percent of the time.

    The Sporting News has you covered with live updates, highlights and more from Game 5 of the NBA Finals.

    (All times Eastern)

    End of third quarter: Warriors 75, Celtics 74

    10:56 p.m.: Jordan Poole! For the second time in this series, he gets a heave to fall at the buzzer to erupt Chase Center. The last-second 3-pointer gives the Warriors a one-point lead going into the final quarter.

    Stephen Curry has been quiet with just 12 points on 0-for-6 shooting from 3. Jayson Tatum caught fire in the third quarter and is up to 22 points, 10 rebounds and four assists.

    10:51 p.m.: The Celtics went up by as much as four points but Klay Thompson has kept the Warriors close with back-to-back 3s. Thompson did pick up his fourth foul, though, and he’ll head to the bench. Boston leads 70-67 with 1:25 to go in the third.

    10:42 p.m.: After missing their first 12 3-pointers, the Celtics have hit eight in a row from deep. Jayson Tatum has taken over the third quarter, knocking down three 3s and dishing an assist to Al Horford on a 3 for their first lead of the game. Boston leads 58-55 with 6:28 to go in the third quarter.

    10:32 p.m.: The Celtics break out of halftime with a quick 10-0 run to cut the Warriors’ lead to just two points. Jayson Tatum has buried back-to-back 3-pointers and is up to 19 points and eight rebounds on the night. Golden State remains in the lead 51-49 with 10:15 on the clock.

    Halftime: Warriors 51, Celtics 39

    10:10 p.m.: The Warriors head into halftime with a comfortable lead and their deathly third quarter is looming. Andrew Wiggins has been incredible in this one, up to a game-high 16 points and seven rebounds in the first half. Stephen Curry joined him in double figures with 10 points, while Draymond Green has had his fingerprints all over the game.

    The Celtics are struggling offensively, shooting 39 percent from the field and 20 percent from 3 with four missed free throws. Boston’s turnover problems are also bubbling up, tallying eight giveaways in the first half. Jaylen Brown has looked lost with just four points on 2-for-10 shooting from the field.

    9:57 p.m.: Andrew Wiggins has been the best player on the floor so far. The Warriors forward has 14 points, seven rebounds, one steal and one block to keep the Warriors in front 43-35 with 2:18 to go in the half. 

    The Celtics missed their first 13 3-point attempts of the game before Jayson Tatum finally got one to go. Since then, Boston has made three straight attempts from deep.

    9:47 p.m.: The Celtics are starting to chip away at the Warriors’ lead. Marcus Smart had a pair of strong takes and Jayson Tatum knocked down a midrange jumper to bring Boston within eight points. Golden State remains in the lead 32-24 with 8:36 to play in the half.

    End of first quarter: Warriors 27, Celtics 16

    9:37 p.m.: The Warriors threw the first punch, getting out to an 11-point lead after the first frame. Golden State held the Celtics to a playoff-low 16 points in the first quarter, as Boston shot 0-for-5 from 3 with four turnovers.

    Andrew Wiggins leads all scorers with seven points. Jayson Tatum started to heat up with three straight buckets at the end of the first quarter, up to six points.

    9:23 p.m.: Klay Thompson is heating up. Along with some physical defense, Thompson has buried a pair of jumpers to tack on five points. Two other things to note: Jayson Tatum went to the bench with zero shot attempts during his first stint and Kevon Looney has racked up three fouls in three minutes of playing time. The Warriors lead 17-8 with 3:50 to play in the first.

    9:15 p.m.: The Warriors strike first. Golden State has come out with all of the energy, taking it to the Celtics early on. Andrew Wiggins is bringing it on the defensive end, forcing Jayson Tatum into a turnover while also recording a block on a Jaylen Brown pull-up jumper. Draymond Green sent Chase Center into a frenzy with a dunk in the lane. The Warriors lead 12-4 through the first four minutes.

    Pregame

    8:35 p.m.: The Warriors will stick with the same starting lineup adjustment from Game 4. Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Andrew Wiggins, Otto Porter Jr. and Draymond Green will start.

    8:30 p.m.: The Celtics will keep the same starting lineup: Marcus Smart, Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum, Al Horford and Robert Williams.

    7:22 p.m.: As expected, Celtics starting center Robert Williams (knee) will be available again in Game 5.

    6:23 p.m.: Stephen Curry has arrived at Chase Center.
