Nba StandingsNBA Standings Update: Playoff Picture Taking Shape as Season Nears Final Stretch
April 2, 2025
As the 2024-25 NBA regular season enters its final weeks, the playoff race is heating up with several teams jockeying for position in both the Eastern and Western Conferences. With only a handful of games remaining, the battle for seeding, play-in tournament spots, and outright playoff berths is more intense than ever.
Eastern Conference: Celtics and Bucks Lead the Pack
The Boston Celtics continue to dominate the East, holding the league’s best record at 58-16. Led by MVP candidate Jayson Tatum and a deep supporting cast, the Celtics have already clinched the top seed and home-court advantage throughout the playoffs.
Right behind them, the Milwaukee Bucks (52-22) remain a strong contender, with Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard keeping them in the hunt for the No. 2 seed. The Cleveland Cavaliers (46-28) and New York Knicks (45-29) are locked in a tight race for third, while the Orlando Magic (42-32) and Indiana Pacers (41-33) are fighting to avoid the play-in tournament.
The play-in race is just as competitive, with the Miami Heat (40-34), Philadelphia 76ers (39-35), and Chicago Bulls (36-38) all vying for the final spots. The Atlanta Hawks (34-40) and Brooklyn Nets (30-44) are on the outside looking in but still mathematically alive.
Western Conference: Nuggets and Thunder in Tight Battle
Out West, the defending champion Denver Nuggets (53-21) hold a slim lead over the Oklahoma City Thunder (52-22) for the No. 1 seed. Nikola Jokić is making another strong MVP case, while Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the young Thunder continue to surprise the league.
The Minnesota Timberwolves (50-24) and Los Angeles Clippers (47-27) round out the top four, with the Clippers hoping Kawhi Leonard and Paul George can stay healthy for a deep playoff run. The Dallas Mavericks (44-30), Phoenix Suns (43-31), and New Orleans Pelicans (43-31) are in a fierce battle to avoid the play-in, while the Sacramento Kings (42-32) and Los Angeles Lakers (41-33) are likely headed for another play-in showdown.
The Golden State Warriors (39-35) and Houston Rockets (37-36) are still fighting for the final play-in spot, with the Rockets making a late-season surge behind rising star Alperen Şengün.

With so much still undecided, every game matters. Key matchups this week include:
Bucks vs. Celtics (April 4) – A potential Eastern Conference Finals preview.
Thunder vs. Suns (April 5) – Crucial for Western Conference seeding.
