The 2020-21 NBA regular season is all wrapped up, but before the postseason can officially begin there's still six games left to be played to determine the seventh and eighth seeds in both conferences. After doing a trial run of a play-in game last year in the Orlando bubble, the league adopted a play-in tournament for this season that involves teams seeded No. 7-10 to fight for their chance to get to the playoffs.

In the East, Jayson Tatum will lead the No. 7 Boston Celtics against a tough matchup against Bradley Beal, Russell Westbrook and the No. 8 Washington Wizards, while the young and exciting No. 9 Charlotte Hornets will get their shot a playoff spot if they can get past the No. 10 Indiana Pacers.
