We’ve got a trio of Game 6’s tonight! Who’s going home, and who will be forcing a Game 7 this weekend? It should be a good one tonight.
Philadelphia 76ers at Toronto Raptors
Eastern Conference Quarter-Finals: Game 6
That game-winning three-pointer by Joel Embiid to put the 76ers up 3-0 in their series with the Toronto was eight days ago, but it feels like three months ago after the Raptors won back-to-back games against Philly to make the series interesting. Now the Raptors have a shot at evening the series up at three-a-piece on their home floor tonight with Joel Embiid still battling a thumb injury and the Sixers reeling.
If the Raptors can pull off a third straight victory tonight, the 76ers and Joel Embiid will be put on short rest before the next series, and that’s if the Sixers can beat the Raps at home in Game 7. Things become a lot smoother for Philadelphia if they can close this series out with a victory tonight.

Phoenix Suns at New Orleans Pelicans
Western Conference Quarter-Finals: Game 6
The Phoenix Suns have a shot to close out their opening-round series with the New Orleans Pelicans tonight in New Orleans. If they get another performance from Mikal Bridges, as we saw on Tuesday night in Phoenix, this one is as good as over. But, the Pelicans have been a thorn in the Suns’ side this series, and they’ll look to continue that trend on their home floor tonight and force a Game 7 in the desert this weekend.

Dallas Mavericks at Utah Jazz
Western Conference Quarter-Finals: Game 6
Since making his debut in this series, Luka Dončić has been the superstar that we know he is, scoring 67 points while logging 23 rebounds and nine assists. Dončić is shooting 51.1 percent from the floor and 35 percent from three-point range in two games. Can Luka put together a third straight 30-point performance? If he can, this one might be over after tonight.
