The Dallas Mavericks, Indiana Pacers, and Minnesota Timberwolves pulled through in their respective fashions to book their tickets to the Conference Finals on Saturday and Sunday nights on Day 28 and 29 of the 2024 NBA Playoffs.

The Mavericks squeaked past the pesky West no.1 seed OKC Thunder as they survived them at home in a 1-point victory. SGA, who was clearly the best player on both teams for the entire series, committed a costly mistake in the game’s waning seconds after fouling PJ Washington shooting a three. Washington made the first two to put the Mavericks up by one and then missed the third attempt with the Thunder having no timeouts left.

The Pacers probably played the game of their life in Game 7 on the road at Madison Square Garden. They shot the best mark in a Game 7 at 70+ percent to defeat the New York Knicks who were nursing several injuries to players.

The Timberwolves completed the largest Game 7 comeback of all time to beat the defending champions Denver Nuggets on their home floor. After being down by 20 early in the third quarter, Minnesota unleashed a 60-32 run to end the game and take the huge victory.
