NBA Player Dynamics and Playoff Prospects

NBA Sundays are back! The Ringer's Bill Simmons is joined by Ryen Russillo to discuss the Celtics' 118-105 win over the Knicks (3:45), before hitting the biggest NBA subplots for the remaining regular season, including: the massively intriguing Lakers, the late-bloomer Warriors (27:49), the perplexing Timberwolves, the despondent Suns, and the outwardly miserable 76ers (0:00). Then, they close the show with some rapid-fire topics, including searching for Ja Morant, the wild-card Pistons, All-NBA battles, "Tank-a-Palooza" starting to heat up, and more (1:31:46)!
