In the Western Conference, the No. 2 seed San Antonio Spurs host the No. 6 seed Minnesota Timberwolves (9:30 p.m. ET, NBC Sports Network/Peacock).

Just three days ago, we asked you who would win Game 7 of the first-round series between the 76ers and Boston Celtics, and 60% of the votes came in for Boston - but that was before we learned that Celtics star Jason Tatum would be unavailable. Tyrese Maxey scored 30 Saturday night as Philadelphia won three in a row to eliminate Boston.

Now the 76ers take on the Knicks, who closed out their first-round series over the Atlanta Hawks with a 51-point drubbing last Thursday. Karl-Anthony Towns has come on strong for the Knicks. Towns had a triple-double in the clincher vs. Atlanta, with 12 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists. So…
