BASKETBALL
NBA
The First Round of the NBA Playoffs is still bringing the bangers. The Boston Celtics and Philadelphia 76ers are locked in an intense battle. The Celtics lead 3–2, so it's on Philly to force Game 7 if they want to move on. The 76ers appear to be surging at exactly the right time, and they have the home court advantage for this game. Down 3–2 is always a dangerous position though, especially against a Celtics team that's been full of surprises all season. If any team still in the First Round is able to force a Game 7, check back to see who's playing on Peacock and get ready for the Conference Semifinals early next week.
