For the third time in the last four years, the city of Oakland will host an NBA Championship parade on behalf of the Golden State Warriors.
Warriors fans who won't be in the Bay Area, and others hoping to see what shenanigans Swaggy P will get into, can catch all of the action online via NBCSportsBayArea.com and the NBC Sports app.
The festivities will reportedly get underway at 2:00pm ET, beginning on Broadway at 11th Street, turning right on 20th Street, turning right on Harrison to 19th Street, and right on Lakeside Drive, ending on Oak and 13th Street. According to NBA.com, the parade will not conclude with a rally as they have done in previous years.
"In lieu of a post-event rally, the Warriors and the City of Oakland have focused their planning efforts solely on creating an interactive parade, the primary element of a championship celebration, where fans will have the opportunity to share in the up-close excitement of the 2018 NBA Championship with the Warriors, their players, coaches, legends and staff."
Over one millions fans are expected to attend the championship parade, which will reportedly cost the Warriors approximately $2.5 million to $3 million.
