Warriors extend lead over Grizzlies in NBA playoffs

The Golden State Warriors basketball players are one win away from a spot in the NBA Western Conference finals. The San Francisco team won its fourth game against Memphis Grizzlies in the playoffs, 101-98, leading 3-1 in the best-of-seven series. Stephen Curry played a key role with the Warriors with a score of 32 points. His striking free throws in the final phase of the game made the difference.

The Warriors played on the bench without coach Steve Kerr. He had to skip the game due to an infection with the corona virus.

Boston Celtics tied with reigning NBA champions Milwaukee Bucks in the Eastern Conference playoffs semifinals. The Celtics won game four 116-108 to make it 2-2 in the best-of-seven. Al Horford and Jayson Tatum were the sharpshooters for the Boston squad with 30 points each. The Bucks, as usual, leaned on top scorer Giannis Antetokounmpo. The Greek scored 34 points.
