After a fun and controversial ending to last night’s playoff action around the NBA, another three-game slate awaits for tonight, so let’s dive into the action.
Kicking off the night, the Minnesota Timberwolves and Phoenix Suns will meet again after the Wolves dominated in Game 1 with a 25-point win. It remains to be seen if the Suns will have an answer tonight, but regardless, we have you covered with a +1100 ultimate same-game parlay for the game.
Next, the Milwaukee Bucks will host the Indiana Pacers in their second game, but after the Pacers got embarrassed in the first-half of Game 1 by Damian Lillard, are the Pacers capable of putting together an all-around performance against the Bucks who many people thought were cooked heading into this series?
To close out the night, the Dallas Mavericks will look to tap into some more Luka Magic as they look to bounce back after a disappointing Game 1 showing against the LA Clippers. With the Clippers hoping to get Kawhi Leonard back tonight, this should be an epic battle.
It’s going to be a fun night of NBA hoops, so let’s lock in, enjoy the games, and pump out some winners!
