Regular season ends Sunday with seeding chaos — the East 6-seed, West 3/4 seeds, and multiple play-in spots are all still up for grabs.

Sunday is the final day of the 2026 NBA regular season, and the amount of seeding still to be decided is borderline absurd. All 30 teams are in action for a monster 15-game slate, and almost nothing is locked in below the top two seeds in each conference.

In the East, the 6-seed is still up for grabs. In the West, the 3 and 4 seeds haven't been decided, and multiple play-in spots could flip depending on Sunday's results. The SoFi Play-In Tournament starts April 14, with the first round of the playoffs tipping off April 18.

Oklahoma City is the betting favorite to win it all at +130, followed by San Antonio (+450), Boston (+550), Denver (+1000), Cleveland (+1300), and New York (+2000). But if this season has taught us anything, it's that nothing is predictable — and Sunday could reshape the entire playoff bracket.
