2018 NBA Playoffs: Live scores, news, schedule: 76ers-Heat, Blazers-Pelicans, Rockets-Wolves, Thunder-Jazz

Saturday’s NBA playoff games feature some fantastic matchups. The Pelicans have a chance to sweep the higher seeded Trail Blazers and become the first team of the postseason to advance into the second round. The 76ers and Heat are in a testy series that could really go either way at this point, but the return of Joel Embiid has seemingly given Philadelphia a huge edge

The two later games are two more Western Conference showdowns. The Jazz and Thunder will try to break their 1-1 tie and the Rockets will be seeking a commanding 3-0 lead over Minnesota. This will be the Timberwolves‘ first postseason game played at home since 2004, so that’s going to be a building filled with energy.
