With Indiana leading the series 2–1 but Cleveland unbeaten on the road in these playoffs, Sunday’s Game 4 in Indianapolis carries massive weight. The Pacers desperately need a signature victory to preserve home-ice advantage and snap the Cavs’ streak of winning by an average of 38 points in their three road wins. Conversely, a win by Cleveland would shift both the series and the psychological edge firmly to the visitors. Expect a charged atmosphere at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, where every defensive stop and offensive possession will be magnified. Tyrese Haliburton’s four-point outing in Game 3 fell far below his postseason standards, but he remains central to Indiana’s fortunes.

With the Thunder leading the series 2–1 but watching the Nuggets steal momentum on the road, Game 4 in Denver becomes a must-win for Oklahoma City. A defeat would not only put them down 3–1 but also hand the Nuggets a golden opportunity to close out the series at home.

Brad Marchand’s game-winner in OT added to his NHL-leading 14 playoff clinchers among active players, while Sergei Bobrovsky’s two breakaway saves preserved the opportunity. Their veteran presence—combining Marchand’s instinctual finishing with Bobrovsky’s championship pedigree—provides a psychological edge. When the puck travels to the crease in extra time, opponents know these two can tip the scales

Baseball is often a family tradition, but for Josh and Jace Jung, this weekend’s Tigers vs. Rangers series was more than just another chapter in their pro careers — it was a full-on family reunion. With both parents in Detroit and Mother’s Day perfectly timed, the brothers took the field as opponents for the first time in the majors. Josh Jung, 27, manned third base for the Texas Rangers, while his younger brother Jace, 24, did the same for the Detroit Tigers. It was a surreal moment for the whole Jung family. “It’s super cool for us and super cool for the family,” Josh told reporters. “Especially with it falling on Mother’s Day. It’s truly remarkable.” The last time they
