Celtics' TD Garden Basket Revealed to Be Too High After Warriors' Complaints

The Golden State Warriors' warm-ups were put on pause Wednesday because their basket at Boston's TD Garden was a few inches too high.

Warriors guard Gary Payton II was one of the players who noticed the difference:

The Warriors and Boston Celtics will play Game 3 of the NBA Finals at 9 p.m. ET.

The best-of-seven series is tied at one game apiece.
