It’s a Tuesday night in November in the NBA, and the Boston Celtics lead the Bulls by 25 points with a minute left in the fourth quarter and … several starters are still in the game? And they’re flying around the court and diving for loose balls like it was a Game 7 in June? What’s gotten into these guys?
Credit to Adam Silver and the NBA for rolling out an incredibly fun new wrinkle within the NBA regular season schedule this year via the inaugural In-Season Tournament. We’re already seeing promising early returns with performances like the one from Tuesday, where the Celtics knew they had to win by 23+ points (and bank on the Brooklyn Nets escaping the Toronto Raptors) in order to win Group C and advance to the quarterfinals. And if things were this intense in the Group stage, just imagine what’s next as the action shifts to a single-elimination format next week.
And because DraftKings Network is the Action Spot, we’re never ones to shy away from a spectacle like this. Ladies and gentlemen, it’s time to Rock Out for the Knockouts. Starting this Saturday, December 2, and running through the In-Season Tournament Finals on December 9, our Rock Out for the Knockouts coverage will include many of your favorite DraftKings Network shows – GoJo and Golic, Dan Le Batard and Friends, Oddball, The Sweat, and Follow the Money – dishing up the latest NBA storylines, daily fantasy picks and betting analysis until only one team is crowned as the In-Season Tournament champion in Las Vegas.
