The second round of the 2025 NBA playoffs has begun, as eight teams look to take another step closer to a title. All four rounds of the NBA playoffs are best-of-seven, and teams are not reseeded after each round.

Donovan Mitchell is fresh off a 33-point performance, where he set an NBA record with his eighth straight Game 1 of 30 or more points. With his squad shorthanded, he may have to do even more to get this series knotted up before it moves to Indiana.

The Golden State Warriors saw Steph Curry leave the game in the second quarter but they rallied to hold off the Timberwolves to take Game 1 in Minnesota.
