The Boston Celtics won the 2024 NBA Finals, 4-1, to clinch the franchise's 18th NBA championship — the most of any team in history.

Jayson Tatum posted 31 points and 11 assists to lead the Celtics in the series-clinching Game 5 win. His Boston co-star, Jaylen Brown, was named Finals MVP after a terrific two-way effort in the best-of-seven series against the Dallas Mavericks.

Here are images from the game and the championship celebrations:
