In this edition of Top-10 Stats of the Week, the Boston Celtics' third-quarter nightmare run continues, Al Horford proves why he's a future Hall of Famer one day (and 36 going on 46 the next day), Los Angles Rams star defender Aaron Donald gets paid, and tennis star Rafa Nadal continues to defy logic.
73-38 -- The Boston Celtics need to improve their third-quarter play if they're going to hoist the Larry O'Brien trophy. Through two NBA Finals games against the Golden State Warriors, they've been outscored, 73-38, in the third quarter. That's a whopping 35-point difference.
6 -- Warriors superstar guard Stephen Curry hit six three-pointers in the first quarter of Game 1 of the NBA Finals. That's the most threes made in a single quarter in NBA Finals history. Curry recorded only one in the remaining three quarters of Game 1.
1,092 -- Speaking of threes, Celtics veteran big Al Horford also hit six threes in Game 1, a career-high mark. Not bad for a player in career game No. 1,092.
11 -- Horford dropped 26 points in Boston's Game 1 victory, including 11 points in the final five minutes of regulation. Somehow, he scored only two points in Boston's Game 2 loss.
6 -- Horford, Robert Williams III, and Marcus Smart combined to score just six points in Game 2. Warriors superstar Klay Thompson shot 21-percent from the field and still doubled the amount of combined points scored by Boston's trio.
26 -- Here's one reason why the Celtics should be nervous, entering Game 3: the Warriors have won at least one road contest in a league-record 26 straight postseason series.
31.7 -- Aaron Donald's new restructured contract with the reigning champion Los Angeles Rams will give him an annual average value (AAV) of $31.7 million. That's the highest AAV for any non-quarterback in NFL history.
14-0 -- Tennis legend Rafael Nadal is now 14-0 in French Open finals. That's more French Open titles than Novak Djokovic, Pete Sampras, Roger Federer, Rod Laver, John McEnroe, Billie Jean King, Jimmy Connors, Serena Williams, Andre Agassi, and Venus Williams combined.
0-26 -- Entering this week, Los Angeles Angels superstar Mike Trout endured a career-worst 0-for-26 slump at the plate. He recorded just 29 hits during the month of May, and through one week of June, he has a single hit.
7,300 -- After sweeping the Edmonton Oilers with a 6-5 overtime victory in Game 4 of the West Finals, the Colorado Avalanche are headed to their first Stanley Cup Final since 2001. And it's been more than 7,300 days since the Avalanche last played with the greatest sports trophy within reach.
