Day 2 of the 2025 NBA Playoffs begins in Oklahoma City with Game 1 of a Western Conference series between the top-seeded Thunder and the No. 8 Memphis Grizzlies.

Ja Morant, Grizzlies: Morant hasn’t played in the playoff since 2023, a quick five-game series loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. He wasn’t an All-Star this season or last season, and this is an opportunity for Morant, 25, to remind a larger audience of what he can still do on the court. The Thunder won the season series 4-0.
