When are the NBA In-Season Tournament quarterfinals?
Things came down to the wire on Tuesday as teams battled for a trip to the In-Season Tournament quarterfinals. The New York Knicks had a chance to win Group B with a win and a Bucks loss, but Milwaukee battled back to beat Miami. Still, with New York's 24-point win over Charlotte, the Knicks secured the East's wildcard spot.
It's safe to say that the first-ever tournament is already a hit. RJ Barrett is a fan of it. As he said, why wouldn't players want to go to Las Vegas and try to win $500,000?
Before the Knicks can book their flights to Vegas, they'll have to make it through the Bucks first. New York's lone group loss came against Milwaukee, so the team will have a prime opportunity to redeem themselves.
