The Golden State Warriors (-4) face the Boston Celtics in Game 2 of the 2022 NBA Finals after Boston's comeback victory in Game 1.

Warriors Outlook:

• Stephen Curry dominated early with 21 first-quarter points but cooled off
• Andrew Wiggins impressed with 20 points on 8-of-15 shooting
• Draymond Green struggled with 4 points on 2-of-12 shooting and defensive lapses
• Klay Thompson: 15 points (6-14 FG)
• Jordan Poole: Limited impact with 9 points off bench

Celtics Outlook:

• Al Horford led with 26 points (9-12 FG) including 6 three-pointers
• Jayson Tatum shot poorly (12 points, 3-17 FG) but dished 13 assists
• Jaylen Brown: 24 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists
• Strong bench contribution from Derrick White (21 points)
• Marcus Smart added 18 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists

Game 2 Prediction: Warriors should bounce back and cover the -4 spread. Boston's hot three-point shooting from unlikely sources is unlikely to repeat, while Golden State will make defensive adjustments after losing control of Game 1's pace in the fourth quarter.
