We're in the final third of the 2023-24 NBA regular season, and the race for the postseason in both conferences is tight.
In the West, the Minnesota Timberwolves, Oklahoma City Thunder and Denver Nuggets are all within a half-game with each other, jostling for the No. 1 spot. And despite an impressive win over the Thunder on Monday, the Los Angeles Lakers remain stuck in the play-in bubble, half a game behind the Dallas Mavericks.
While it appears no team in the East will catch the Boston Celtics, who most recently topped their regular-season dominance with a 52-point win over the Golden State Warriors on Sunday, the Miami Heat and Indiana Pacers -- one game apart -- could make another surprising postseason run, with the health of the Philadelphia 76ers and New York Knicks still up in the air.
