The second round has started out with a series of upsets on the road, showing things are even at the top of the NBA.

The field is set for the second round of the 2025 NBA Playoffs. Only eight teams are still in the running to win the title. That includes the top seed in each conference, the West's OKC Thunder and the East's Cleveland Cavaliers.

The Pacers won Games 1, 2 and 5 at Rocket Mortgage Arena to help secure their spot in the Eastern Conference Finals. Indiana needed to battle back from a 12-point first-quarter deficit. Tyrese Haliburton's three-point shooting played a huge role in clawing back into the game.
