It all comes down to one final game at Oracle Arena as the Golden State Warriors take on the Toronto Raptors in a must-win Game 6 of the NBA Finals.
In order to extend the series and keep their three-peat hopes alive, the Warriors will have to win Game 6 without Kevin Durant. The superstar forward underwent surgery Wednesday to repair a ruptured Achilles tendon after heroically returning from a calf injury Monday to play in Game 5.
All fans in attendance at Game 6 will receive a special "For Oakland" rally towel. On the towel, the letters "K" and "D" in the word "Oakland" are a different color in honor of Durant.
"Do it for Kevin," Warriors guard Klay Thompson said after Durant suffered his Achilles injury. "We do it for 'K.' I can tell you this, he wants us to compete at the highest level. We'll think of him every time we step on the hardwood."
