Game 4 of Warriors-Mavs Featured a 16-Minute ‘Rain Delay’

Golden State leads Dallas, 3-0, and no team in NBA history has rallied from a 3-0 deficit to win a series.

The Warriors-Mavericks Game 4 matchup was delayed going into the second half due to roof leaks and water falling on the court inside the American Airlines Center.

Water surrounded the Warriors’ bench but was removed from the floor before the game resumed after a 16-minute delay, per Marc Stein.
