Capping off the Day 2 action will be the top-seeded Phoenix Suns hosting the No. 8 New Orleans Pelicans. On paper, the Suns are a heavy favorite but, as we have seen this weekend, anything can happen in the playoffs and the Pelicans knocked off two teams this past week to earn this opportunity. Phoenix cannot afford to take New Orleans lightly in this matchup. After falling behind by a sizable margin in the early going, the Pelicans have cut the deficit to single digits entering the fourth quarter.
Earlier, the Miami Heat made easy work of the Atlanta Hawks, 115-91 to take a 1-0 series lead. Next, the Celtics defeated the Nets, 115-114, thanks to Jayson Tatum's incredible buzzer-beating layup. In the third game of the day, the Bucks and Bulls played a thriller that ended in a 93-86 win for Milwaukee.
