This list is based on the games played on Saturday nights games, this list is not based on who had the most points, it’s about who had the best impact on the floor, all things considered.
- Jayson Tatum
Tatum and the Boston Celtics take a 3-0 lead with a 109-103 win over the Brooklyn Nets last night and it looks like this series is pretty much over. Tatum had a magnificent game, leading the team in points with 39, with also 5 boards, 6 assists and a team high 6 steals. With game 4 taking place on Monday the Celtics will look to end this series rather quickly and move into round 2, it’s reported Ben Simmons will be back for game 4 making his long-awaited Nets debut but there’s no tape to see what impact Simmons will have on that Brooklyn team.
- Karl-Anthony Towns
Karl-Anthony Towns came to play in game 4, evening up the series 2-2 with a monster game of 33 points and 14 boards with also a few assists as well, this series has been chippy for the most part so far with each team trash talking one another, giving it that old school rivalry. With Towns and the Timberwolves having a rough game 3 they were looking to bounce back in a big way in game 4 and they did exactly just that, with Game 5 taking place on Tuesday night in Memphis both teams will be looking to take a commanding 3-2 lead.
- Pascal Siakam
Spicy P and the Toronto Raptors hold on to avoid getting swept in this first round series against the Joel Embiid led 76ers with a 110-102 win in game 4. Siakam had a great game filling up the stat sheet with 34 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists, a steal and 2 blocks on decent mid range shooting {52.6%}. With game 5 heading back into Philadelphia the Sixers will look to end the series in a gentleman’s sweep, With Fred VanVleet getting hurt in the first half this Raptors team is nothing short of a big underdog to the 76ers.
