DO NBA PLAY IN GAMES EFFECT STATS?

I don’t like coding in season games as I really have no idea if they effect all time stats and without that knowledge there is very little I can do.

Any info would be appreciated

Much love!

All teams have played 82 regular season games, so I am intrigued if this is regarded as the teams 83rd season game of the season.

The NBA play-in tournament is the preliminary National Basketball Association (NBA) postseason tournament. It determines the final two playoff seeds in the Eastern Conference and Western Conference and is played immediately prior to the NBA Playoffs, which is the main tournament of the postseason and regarded by the league as separate from the play-in tournament. Teams finishing the regular season in positions 7 through 10 in the standings for each conference compete to determine the number 7 and 8 seeds in each conference’s bracket tournament.

What have been the results?

The seventh-place team is 5-1, and the ninth-place team is 4-2 in opening play-in games; the No. 8 seed is 1-0 against the No. 10 seed, and the No. 7 seed is 1-0 against the No. 10 seed; the ninth-place team is 3-1 against the eighth-place team for the eighth seed.

Last season marked the first time a play-in team won a playoff series since the four-team play-in tournament began in 2021. The Miami Heat, the No. 8 seed in the Eastern conference, advanced to the NBA Finals with victories over No. 1 seed Milwaukee, No. 5 seed New York and No. 2 Boston before losing to the West’s No. 1 seed Denver in the NBA Finals. In the Western conference, the seventh-seeded Los Angeles Lakers beat No. 2 seed Memphis and No. 6 seed Golden State before losing to the Nuggets in the conference finals in 2023.

The teams meet on the 24 year anniversary of Tom Brady being drafted by New England Patriots, and Kobe wore #24

7th seed Pelicans meet 8th seed Lakers and both teams are same odds (Winner meets Denver) Kobe was born in ’78

9th seed Kings play 10th seed Warriors (Winner meets loser of the Lakers vs Pelicans game and winner of that meets OKC Thunder) Warriors are slight favs to win at -150
