Las Vegas Aces coach Becky Hammon reaffirmed her view that small guards cannot lead teams to NBA titles after the New York Knicks advanced to the Finals.
The Knicks swept the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday night to reach the NBA Finals for the first time since 1999. Jalen Brunson was named Eastern Conference Finals MVP after averaging 25.5 points and 7.5 assists in the series. He now sits four wins from leading New York to its first championship since 1973.
