It might be the opening weekend of March Madness, but there's still plenty of NBA action on the schedule.
Starting off the day, Kemba Walker and the Hornets staged an incredible 18-point comeback in the fourth quarter to shock the Celtics, who have now lost three games in a row.
Also early on, the Heat snuck past the Wizards to pick up a big win in their hunt for a playoff spot. Meanwhile, the 76ers battle the Hawks in Atlanta.
Later on, the Jazz head to the midwest for a matchup with the lowly Bulls, the Timberwolves and Grizzlies face off in a fairly inconsequential game and the Mavericks meet the Warriors in what could be Dirk Nowitzki's last game in Oakland.
To close out the night, two teams battling for playoff seeding will square off in Portland when the Pistons face the Trail Blazers, while the Suns and Kings go at it in Sacramento.
Here's everything you need to know about Saturday night in the NBA:
NBA schedule for Saturday, March 23
*All times Eastern
Young beats the buzzer to lead the Hawks to victory
The Atlanta Hawks are not making the NBA playoffs this season but Trae Young is looking more and more like a great selection for the franchise and he proved that once again tonight by hitting the game-winner against the Philadelphia 76ers.
Wade's big night gets Heat a crucial win
Every game is a must-win for the Heat at this point as they try to hold on to the eighth and final playoff spot in the East. On Saturday night in D.C. they did indeed get a win, sneaking past the Wizards in a close one, 113-108. And they did so thanks to Dwyane Wade, who finished with 20 points, nine rebounds and five assists in his last game in D.C.
Luka gets off to a hot start in Oakland
This might be Dirk Nowitzki's last game in Oakland, but Luka Doncic stole the show early on. The rookie put up 11 points, seven rebounds and five assists in the opening quarter alone.
Jazz put style into the fastbreak
The Jazz got out to a huge lead on the Bulls thanks to sequences like this one. First, they wiped out a shot, then advanced the ball up the court in style before Donovan Mitchell slammed it home with authority.
Kemba outduels Kyrie in Charlotte
Kemba Walker and the Hornets were struggling on Saturday evening and looked to be heading towards another bad loss. That is, until Walker absolutely took over down the stretch. He led the Hornets on a 30-5 run over the last eight minutes to secure a vital victory to keep their thin playoff hopes alive. Walker scored 18 of his 36 points in the fourth quarter and added 11 rebounds and nine assists. On the other side, Kyrie Irving finished with 31 points, seven rebounds and six assists.
Boban from deep
Boban Marjanovic now has more 3-pointers than Ben Simmons. The Sixers big man drained a triple from the corner against the Hawks for the first 3 of his career.
Bridges gets it done on both ends
Miles Bridges got busy on both ends against the Celtics. First, he played some nice defense to get a deflection, then hustled down the other end of the floor and finished the fastbreak with an alley-oop.
