The NBA regular season came to a close after a thrilling few months, we have one of the greatest MVP races of all time, a Western Conference with no true favourite, and a star-studded Eastern Conference. The postseason started off with the play-in which finalized the playoff bracket. The Lakers, Timberwolves, Hawks, and Heat all secured a place in the playoffs.
This is likely to be an amazing postseason considering that there are no clear favourites to win, pretty much any team could go on from here and win the Championship. The first round of playoff matchups is set to begin at 8 PM Bahrain Time where we'll see the Philadelphia 76ers take on the Brooklyn Nets. Mikal Bridges, Nets star, will make his return to Philadelphia which is where he played college basketball.
Six other teams will be in action tonight, including Stephen Curry's Golden State Warriors and the Jayson Tatum-led Boston Celtics.
