Golden State outlasted Cleveland 108-100 in over-time to win the opening game of the NBA Finals, the Cavaliers suffering another major setback with an injury to Kyrie Irving. NBA Most Valuable Player Steph Curry scored 26 points and passed out eight assists while Klay Thompson added 21 points for the Warriors, who trailed most of the night but rallied late and dominated over-time after finishing deadlocked at 98-98 after regulation. The first NBA Finals opener since 2001 to reach over-time was decided when Cleveland started with 0-for-9 shooting and made three turnovers while Curry, the NBA's most accurate free throw shooter, hit four from the line and Harrison Barnes added a 3-pointer to open the extra frame.
