This weekend’s sports news and what to watch this week

NBA

TNT recently announced that next year will be the last year for Inside the NBA, an amazing NBA analysis and pregame show featuring Charles Barkley and Shaquille O’Neal that some say is the best show on television. After some rumors that he would move to a different network, Barkley announced this weekend that he will be retiring after next season.

NBA Finals

The Dallas Mavericks dominated the Boston Celtics in Game 4 122-84. Not much to unpack here, the Celtics went down early and were never able to make a comeback. Celtics will have another chance to end the series tonight in Boston.

NHL Stanley Cup Finals

The Edmonton Oilers also dominated in a Game 4 desperation game and beat the Florida Panthers 8-1. Florida will be at home tomorrow night and will look to close out the series.

Golf

Bryson Dechambeau wins the U.S. Open at Pinehurst in difficult conditions. He was neck and neck with Rory McIlroy late in the final round but Rory missed a couple of short putts and Bryson was able to close out with a par on 18 to clinch his second U.S. Open victory.
