The second day of play-in decrees the first eliminations from the post season. It is the two teams that had concluded the season in ninth place, and therefore played at home, to be defeated, even rather clearly. Miami dominates Chicago thanks to a majestic test of Tyler Herro (38 points for him), and he earns the challenge in the Hawks home, while Dallas passes to Sacramento with the redemption of the Davis-Thompson duo, and his chances of playoffs will be played at the Fedex Forum in Memphis. The two challenges, which will complete the picture of the playoffs, will be held on the night between Friday and Saturday.
