The 2024 NBA Play-In Tournament schedule has been finalized following a massive 15-game slate on the last day of regular season.
The NBA Play-In Tournament will take place April 16-19, with the playoffs beginning straight after on April 20.
In case you’ve forgotten: number seven seed will play number eight seed in each conference, and number nine will play number 10. The winner of the 7-8 game gets the seven seed, while the loser will face the winner of the 9-10 game for the eight seed.
There will be a slight scheduling change to this year’s tournament since both Western Conference games will take place on Tuesday before the 76ers vs. Heat and Bulls vs. Hawks on Wednesday.
Usually, Tuesday would be the number seven vs. number eight seed in both conferences, but the 76ers can’t host a game a Tuesday game due to scheduling conflict with the National Hockey League.
Games can be watched on TNT, ESPN and NBA League Pass.
