The Boston Celtics will face the Orlando Magic in the first round of the NBA playoffs, after the Magic beat the Atlanta Hawks in the play-in tournament Tuesday night to claim the 7-seed in the Eastern Conference.

Boston is led by the star duo of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, but also has several players capable of 30-plus-point outings like Derrick White and Kristaps Porziņģis. It's hard to argue that there is a team deeper than the Celtics this year.

The pieces are in place for this to be a very compelling NBA postseason, with a mix of a new guard as the top seeds in both the East and West while a repeat threat is more than real in Boston and the duo of LeBron James and Luka Doncic try to go on a deep run to a title.
