On Friday night, Miami Heat backup center Greg Oden celebrated his team's NBA Eastern Conference championship victory with tennis stars Serena Williams and Caroline Wozniacki.
Williams and Wozniacki attended Game 6 of the NBA Eastern Conference Finals together after suffering losses in the early rounds of the French Open earlier this week. Wozniacki is also dealing with her recent break-up with golfer Rory McIlroy after he called off their engagement.
With the Heat blowing out the Pacers, both teams cleared their benches in the fourth quarter, giving Oden a chance to play for the first time this postseason. Oden played for 5 minutes to close out the 117-92 Heat victory as the Heat won the series 4-2 to advance to their fourth straight NBA Finals appearance. After the game, Oden took a photo of himself holding the Eastern Conference championship trophy, with Williams and Wozniacki by his side.
