We are officially one week into the 2022 NBA playoffs, and the action has not disappointed thus far. Among the eight first-round series, most still remain close after a few games played. The postseason continues Saturday with a four-game slate. Headlining the day is Luka Doncic’s return from a calf injury. He’s back in action as the Dallas Mavericks try to take a commanding 3-1 lead over the Utah Jazz. While it was the Jazz who owned a double-digit lead at the halftime break, it is the Mavericks who enter the fourth quarter with a slim advantage.
Earlier, the Toronto Raptors managed to stay alive after defeating the Philadelphia 76ers 110-102 to force a Game 5. In the third game of the day, the Brooklyn Nets look to climb back against the Celtics at home after dropping the first two games in Boston. Finally, the Grizzlies and Timberwolves wrap up the action in Minnesota as Memphis tries to extend its lead to 3-1.
