CNN
The Golden State Warriors took a 3-0 series lead and edged closer to a place in the NBA Finals thanks to a 109-100 win over the Dallas Mavericks on Sunday.
History is now on the Warriors' side, as no team has ever come back from a 3-0 series deficit in the NBA playoffs in 146 attempts.
Steph Curry led Golden State in scoring with an efficient 31 points to go with 11 assists and five rebounds, while Andrew Wiggins -- who slammed home a huge, posterizing dunk on Mavs star Luka Doncic in the fourth quarter -- added a double-double of his own with 27 points, 11 rebounds and three assists.

US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth is not expected to attend next week’s meeting of the Ukraine Defense Contact Group in Brussels, marking the first time since the group’s founding three years ago that a senior Pentagon official will not be there to represent the US, officials familiar with the matter told CNN.
