The episode also touches on Jayson Tatum returning to MSG, Joel Embiid’s health, and what it all means for the playoff race. They then shift to players who can swing a playoff series, including OG Anunoby, Payton Pritchard, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, LaMelo Ball, Keldon Johnson, Aaron Gordon, Jaden McDaniels, Reed Sheppard, and more, before wrapping with dark horse teams to watch.
