The NBA regular season finale is finally here after 81 games and months of action, drama and hoops. Even with all that's happened in that span, there are still plenty of playoff and play-in spots up for grabs. The Western Conference is the most notable, as just one game separates the fourth and seventh seeds.
Playoff teams can be relegated to the play-in and vice versa, all on this final day of games. WATCH: The final day of the NBA regular season LIVE on Sling All 30 teams will play, with a handful of teams having stakes on the line. Some teams, like the Thunder and Cavaliers, have nothing to play for, as they've already locked up the No.
1 seeds in their conferences. Likewise, the Jazz, Wizards, Hornets and Pelicans are all at the bottom of the standings. For the bottom-feeders, Sunday is a chance to improve their odds for the 2025 NBA Draft lottery.
Cooper Flagg is the coveted top prospect and is expected to land No. 1 overall. Teams will certainly lose an extra game to gain an edge in the lottery.
For the playoff teams, it's all about avoiding the play-in and potentially earning home-court advantage. Teams like Denver could go from a top-four seed to participating in the play-in tournament. While some may already be looking toward the postseason, the final day of the regular season is extremely important for others.
Expect drama, lots of action and movement in the standings. The Sporting News has all the details on the final day of the regular season. NBA schedule today Game Time (ET) TV channel/Live stream Magic vs.
