The No. 1-seeded Cleveland Cavaliers will face the No. 8-seeded Miami Heat in the first round of the 2025 NBA playoffs.

The NBA playoff picture came into full focus Friday night with the final two games of the play-in tournament. The Miami Heat and Memphis Grizzlies were victorious to grab the final two slots in the playoff field.

In one corner, the Cleveland Cavaliers stormed out to 15 wins in their first 15 games and never really looked back, capturing the East’s No. 1 seed and, along the way, becoming just the second team in history to produce three separate winning streaks of at least 12 games.
