The conference finals are underway in the 2023 NBA playoffs. The Denver Nuggets remained undefeated at home in the playoffs with a come-from-behind win over the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday night. Jamal Murray scored a game-high 37 points in the victory that gave Denver a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven Western Conference finals. In the East, the Miami Heat will try to take a 2-0 lead of their own on Friday night.
The Heat took down the Celtics in Game 1 on Wednesday in Boston, and the eighth-seeded Heat have yet to trail in a playoff series so far in 2023. Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown will need to respond for the Celtics on Friday or Boston could head to Miami in an 0-2 hole.
As the bracket changes, we’re keeping track of everything you need to know about the 2023 NBA playoffs. Below is the daily playoff schedule as well as the previous results, the playoff bracket, dates, times and TV/streaming info.
