Mandatory Credit: Daniel Dunn-Imagn Images | Daniel Dunn-Imagn Images The Eastern Conference has three se ries that have yet to be decided, with three game sevens between today and tomorrow, but at least the second round of the West is set, and the NBA has released the broadcast schedule for Games 1-4 of the 2nd seed San Antonio vs. the 6th seed Minnesota Timberwolves — and it’s kind of brutal if you’re like me, have to get up early for work and therefore don’t like late tip-off times. Western Conference Semifinals schedule: San Antonio Spurs vs. Minnesota Timberwolves ⬇️ pic.twitter.com/D1RSHxccnl— NBA Communications (@NBAPR) May 2, 2026 Games 1-3 will all be at 8:30 PM CT, while Game 4 will be at 6:30 PM CT. Games 5-7 are TBD and will be scheduled as needed. Another note is there is only one time there will be an extra day off between games (i.e. two instead of 0ne), and that will be between Games 5 and 6 if needed, but there will be no break for any other travel days, such as between Games 2 and 3. Game 1 at San Antonio: Monday, May 4 @ 8:30 PM CT on NBCSN/Peacock Game 2 at San Antonio: Wednesday, May 6 @ 8:30 PM CT on ESPN Game 3 at Minnesota: Friday, May 8 @ 8:30 PM CT on Prime Game 4 at Minnesota: Sunday, May 10 @ 6:30 PM CT on NBC/Peacock Game 5 at San Antonio: Tuesday May 12 (TBD) Game 6 at Minnesota: Friday May 15 (TBD) Game 7 at San Antonio: Sunday May 17 (TBD) Perhaps the most annoying thing about this schedule is Game 1 in particular does not have to be so late since it’s not a double header, but oh well. The Spurs are back in the playoffs, and that’s all that really matters. This will be an interesting round considering we don’t know the state of the Timberwolves’ health. We know Donte DiVincenozo is out, but players like Ayo Dosunmo and especially Anthony Edwards are still up in the air. We will have more on this series, such as match-ups, X factors, and more coming soon. ...read more read less
