However, during the first matches, the field and the favorites held.

Here’s everything you need to know about the 2024 NBA Playoffs, with full matchups and schedules, which will be updated as the scores come in – check back for all the results.

The play-in – the NBA version of the Wild Card round – ends Friday evening, April 19, with two games (Chicago at Miami, Sacramento at New Orleans).

The NBA playoffs begin on Saturday, April 20, with four games. The two teams that win Friday night will have to turn around and fly to Boston (East) or Oklahoma City (West) and begin the playoffs less than 48 hours later.
