The second round of the 2025 NBA playoffs continued this weekend, with the Cleveland Cavaliers, Denver Nuggets, Minnesota Timberwolves and Boston Celtics emerging victorious in Game 3s. The Wolves and Nuggets now hold 2-1 leads in their series, while the New York Knicks and Indiana Pacers are the ones up 2-1 in their respective matchups.
The action kept on rolling on Saturday, with the Celtics hitting 20 3-pointers to get their first win against the Knicks. In the night cap, the Wolves held off a valiant effort from the short-handed Warriors, who are playing without the services of Steph Curry. Things continue on Sunday with Game 4s in the Thunder-Nuggets and Cavs-Pacers series.
It’s been an upset-heavy second round so far, but the Oklahoma City Thunder remain the title favorites (+175 at DraftKings). The Celtics, despite being down 2-1 against the Knicks, have the second-best title odds and are still the favorites to win the East (+225).
