Eight teams are left vying for the 2023 NBA title. Four second-round matchups are all in action this week, including Game 2 of Warriors-Lakers on Thursday night. The defending champs need a win at home to even the series after L.A. and Anthony Davis stole Game 1 and home-court advantage on Tuesday.
The other three second-round series will continue this weekend. Friday sees Game 3s for 76ers-Celtics and Suns-Nuggets. Boston picked up a win to even its series against Philly on Wednesday, while Denver has a 2-0 series lead heading to Phoenix. The Knicks and Heat pick things back up on Saturday in a 1-1 series with Jimmy Butler hoping to play Game 3 for Miami.
