NBA In-Season Tournament Elimination And Clinching Scenarios For Tuesday, November 21

The NBA In-Season Tournament will continue on Tuesday evening with a 5-game slate that will see a few teams play their fourth and final game of the group stage, with some opportunities to clinch a spot in the knockout rounds on the table.

East Group A and West Group A take center stage with two games each — with Raptors-Magic out of East Group C also on the schedule — and by the end of the night we could have our first two groups decided. Here, we’ll take a group-by-group look at the In-Season Tournament standings, highlight the most important games of Tuesday night’s slate, and take a look at the scenarios for teams to clinch and be eliminated as we reach the closing stretch of group stage action.

East Group A

Tuesday, Nov. 21 Schedule:
Pacers at Hawks
Cavaliers at 76ers

Standings (Teams Yet To Play)
Pacers: 2-0, +11 (Hawks, Pistons)
76ers: 2-1, +12 (Cavs)
Cavaliers: 1-1, +3 (Hawks, 76ers)
Hawks: 1-1, -4 (Pacers, Cavs)
Pistons: 0-3, -22 (Pacers)

This one’s pretty simple as a Pacers win over the Hawks clinches the group for Indiana as they have a head-to-head tiebreaker over both the 76ers and Cavs already. A Hawks win brings some chaos scenarios into play, as there would be three teams with one loss and uneven head-to-head situations, while Cavs-Sixers could be very important for the East wild card chase. A Sixers win and a Pacers win would eliminate the Cavs, Hawks, and Hornets from wild card contention, as that would guarantee two teams with three wins in the group, taking out all 2-2 teams. Point differential will play a big role in the wild card chase, with and the Sixers (or Cavs) would need a big win to feel comfortable about their chances at snagging the wild card at 3-1.

East Group B

Tuesday, Nov. 21 Schedule:
N/A

Standings (Teams Yet To Play)
Bucks: 2-0, +36 (Hornets, Heat)
Heat: 2-0, +13 (Bucks, Knicks)
Knicks: 1-1, +16 (Heat, Wizards)
Hornets: 1-2, -30 (Bucks)
Wizards: 0-3, -35 (Knicks)

East Group B will just be watching on Tuesday night, but the Heat, Bucks, and Knicks each will have their eyes on what happens in Group A, as a lopsided Sixers win would put some pressure on the point differential battle for the wild card. The Bucks are in great position there, as if they can get one more win and then avoid a catastrophic loss, they should be a lock for a knockout round spot, but New York and Miami both will want to pad their differential if they want to make it to the next round.

East Group C

Tuesday, Nov. 21 Schedule:
Raptors at Magic

Standings (Teams Yet To Play)
Celtics: 2-0, +17 (Bulls, Magic)
Nets: 2-1, +8 (Raptors)
Magic: 1-1, -14 (Celtics, Raptors)
Raptors: 0-1, -3 (Nets, Bulls, Magic)
Bulls: 0-2, -8 (Raptors, Celtics)

The Nets and Celtics will likewise have their eyes on the Group A games for point differential reasons, while Raptors-Magic is, effectively, an eliminator as it seems all but assured there will be a team that finishes 3-1 that doesn’t win their group. As such, they will each need wins to feel like they have a chance, and if the Magic, Sixers, and Indiana all win, the Raptors and Bulls would be officially eliminated.

West Group A

Tuesday, Nov. 21 Schedule:
Blazers at Suns
Jazz at Lakers

Standings (Teams Yet To Play)
Lakers: 3-0, +42 (Jazz)
Jazz: 2-1, +19 (Lakers)
Blazers: 1-2, -26 (Suns)
Suns: 1-1, 0 (Blazers, Grizzlies)
Grizzlies: 0-3, -35 (Suns)

The Lakers are in with a win and would have homecourt in the quarterfinals, while a Utah upset would bring some other scenarios into play (and would eliminate the Thunder and Blazers by ensuring two 3-1 teams in the same group). If the Lakers lose small, they would have the inside track on the wild card thanks to their point differential, but would not be assured of a knockout round spot. Utah, meanwhile, would clinch the group if they win and the Suns lose to Portland. If not, a three-way tiebreaker between the Lakers, Suns, and Jazz would ultimately come down to differential.

West Group B

Tuesday, Nov. 21 Schedule:
N/A

Standings (Teams Yet To Play)
Pelicans: 2-1, +23 (Clippers)
Nuggets: 2-1, +9 (Rockets)
Rockets: 1-1, -3 (Nuggets, Mavericks)
Mavericks: 1-2, -14 (Rockets)
Clippers: 1-2, -15 (Pelicans)

The Pelicans, Nuggets, and Rockets will all be rooting for a L.A. win, as they would rather see Utah dropped to 2-2 than have to contend with another 3-1 team with a differential of more than 20 points.

West Group C

Tuesday, Nov. 21 Schedule:
N/A

Standings (Teams Yet To Play)
Kings: 2-0, +16 (Wolves, Warriors)
Timberwolves: 2-0, +10 (Kings, Thunder)
Warriors: 1-1, -1 (Kings, Spurs)
Thunder: 1-2, +27 (Wolves)
Spurs: 0-3, -52 (Warriors)

The Kings, Wolves, and Warriors will, likewise, want to see a win by the Lakers as it eliminates a possible 3-1 wild card contender. A Suns loss also is very good for business for those teams, but seems unlikely.

All The Best New Pop Music From This Week

tate mcrae

This week saw the release of a ton of great new pop music. Reneé Rapp treated fans to an extra glimpse of her vocal range, by dropping the deluxe version of her debut record. Sabrina Carpenter is ushering in the holiday season with some new playlist additions. And so many more incredible songs.

Check out the rest of Uproxx’s Best New Pop Music roundup below.

Tate McRae — “Exes”

Uproxx cover star Tate McRae’s latest “Exes” has only been out for a few days, and has already been the pop performer’s latest viral moment. The video finds McRae pulling inspiration from none other than Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera, as fans have been quick to spot the tributes. She also doesn’t hold back on the disses, making it another hit to watch.

Enhypen — “Sweet Venom”

Enhypen’s new Orange Blood mini-album features three versions of their standout track, “Sweet Venom.” One of these takes is a collaboration with Bella Poarch, as she offers the other perspective on the addictive relationship presented in the song.

Bleachers — “Alma Mater”

The second single from Bleachers’ recently-announced self-titled album, “Alma Mater,” is the perfect late-night soundtrack. Dealing with everything from love and nostalgia to disdain for the current culture (“f*ck Balenciaga”), it slows the pacing down to take fans through the motions of life.

Reneé Rapp — “Tummy Hurts” (Remix feat. Coco Jones)

Reneé Rapp dropped the anticipated deluxe version of her already-incredible album, Snow Angel. One of the highlights is her new remix of “Tummy Hurts,” which finds Coco Jones jumping on for a new verse. Her presence adds a bit of softness to the track, giving a bit of possible forgiveness to an awful man.

Arcángel — “Me Gusta Tu Flow”

According to an interview with Apple Music, Arcángel’s “Me Gusta Tu Flow” came about after he was searching for inspiration — looking to his older music to guide a sense of rediscovery. Lyrically, the translation finds the performer chasing after an attraction.

Sabrina Carpenter — “Buy Me Presents”

The fact that Sabrina Carpenter and Santa Claus have the same initials is no coincidence, and it’s finally time that the pop star dropped a new holiday-themed EP, Fruitcake. “Buy Me Presents” channels the cheery instrumental of traditional Christmas songs, while Carpenter is spilling some spicy lyrics about how she really just wants to be spoiled.

BIBI, Becky G — “Amigos”

BIBI and Becky G aren’t afraid to turn up the heat on their new collab, as the two girls detail how they plan to add some extra “Amigos” to their roster — even if they already have a man. “I know we had a good time and that you always want more / But if my boyfriend calls, we’re just friends, nothing more,” they both duet in Spanish in the chorus.

Keltiey — “CalledYoPhone” (feat. Texako)

Keltiey had already been building buzz before her debut mixtape, B2B, and now, new fans will be able to discover just how talented she is. The title track ends with audio of an automatic voicemail message, serving as the creative transition into “CalledYoPhone.” In it, she details cutting off a cheater who didn’t pick up, with an added verse from Texako.

Madi Diaz, Kacey Musgraves — “Don’t Do Me Good”

Madi Diaz brought Kacey Musgraves on for “Don’t Do Me Good,” an emotional duet about the loss of a relationship. As Diaz described, she wanted the song to feel like venting on a call to a friend, with Musgraves being the complimentary vocalist for the job.

Dermot Kennedy — “Two Hearts”

“I love this song so much, a story plays out scene-by-scene in my head when I sing it and I love that, it reminds me of when I first started writing music,” Kennedy shared on social media about “Two Hearts,” a ballad about love’s challenges.

Why Was MrBeast Buried Alive?

As one of the most popular YouTube personalities, MrBeast has to constantly find new ways to keep his massive audience engaged. This dynamic led to his most terrifying stunt: Being buried alive for seven days.

In a homage to Kill Bill, MrBeast (real name: Jimmy Donaldson) encased himself in a transparent coffin that was lowered into the ground and covered with over 20,000 pounds of dirt. From inside the specifically designed chamber, MrBeast streamed his experience of spending a full week buried beneath the surface. He had previously spent 50 hours buried alive, so this would be a new record for the YouTuber. However, the week-long dirt nap proved to be more daunting than MrBeast anticipated.

Via New York Post:

Despite the safeguards, the seven-day dirt nap proved psychologically taxing for the daredevil. He was reduced to tears several times during his voluntary entombment, including when he was being released from the casket. There was also the concern that he wouldn’t be able to stand up due to blood clots in his legs from lying in a confined space for so long.

Thankfully, that fear never came to fruition, and Donaldson completed his temporary interment unscathed.

As for why MrBeast went through the self-described “mental agony” of being six feet under for a whole week, we told you earlier: For the subs. The stunt racked up a staggering 57 million views, which only further cemented MrBeast’s status as one of the most popular YouTubers around. However, he’s now faced with the even more terrifying task of topping this latest stunt.

All The Best New Indie Music From This Week

Indie music has grown to include so much. It’s not just music that is released on independent labels, but speaks to an aesthetic that deviates from the norm and follows its own weirdo heart. It can come in the form of rock music, pop, or folk. In a sense, it says as much about the people that are drawn to it as it does about the people that make it.

Every week, Uproxx is rounding up the best new indie music from the past seven days. This week, we got new music from The Smile, MJ Lenderman, Mannequin Pussy, Kurt Vile, and more.

While we’re at it, sign up for our newsletter to get the best new indie music delivered directly to your inbox, every Monday.

MJ Lenderman – And The Wind (Live And Loose!)

From Wednesday’s masterful Rat Saw God to his solo breakthrough, last year’s Boat Songs, the Asheville songwriter MJ Lenderman has been on a hot streak. On his live album, And The Wind (Live And Loose!), Lenderman maintains his dizzying momentum. It perfectly captures the spirit of his live shows: rowdy bursts of guitar twang, noisy breakdowns, and locked-in, symbiotic performances. Boat Songs cuts like “Hangover Game” and “Dan Marino” take their country-fried arrangements a step further, and his latest single “Rudolph” gets an extended outro that nearly doubles its original length. Across this album’s 15 tracks, Lenderman reminds us why he’s one of indie rock’s best songwriters right now.

Kurt Vile – Back To Moon Beach

Leave it to Kurt Vile to make a roughly hour-long EP. The Philly indie rock songwriter has practically become synonymous with sprawling, dreamy twang. Similar to last year’s Watch My Moves and seminal records like Smoke Ring For My Halo and Wakin On A Pretty Daze, many of his songs far exceed the five-minute mark. His new EP, Back To Moon Beach, would qualify as a double album for some artists. Vile, however, likes to defy expectations, both in his music and his presentation. On songs like the cheerful cover of “Must Be Santa” and the drum machine-driven, gauzy “Like A Wounded Bird Trying To Fly,” Vile continues to surprise us in the best way. It’s hard to ask much more of songs this charming.

The Smile – “Wall Of Eyes”

Core Radiohead songwriters, vocalist Thom Yorke and guitarist Jonny Greenwood, have been keeping themselves occupied. But they’ve largely left Radiohead behind since 2016’s masterful A Moon Shaped Pool. The Smile, their pseudo-side project with Sons of Kemet drummer Tom Skinner, seems to be their primary interest at this point. Last year’s excellent debut, A Light For Attracting Attention, will receive its follow-up this January, titled Wall Of Eyes. Alongside the announcement, they’ve shared its title track and opener. Its eerie sense of calm hits hardest in the chorus, as Yorke croons, “I try, but it don’t go away.” Although it’d be a shame to have Radiohead go away, we’re lucky to have a band that matches their distinct panache for ornate, mournful beauty.

Mannequin Pussy – “Sometimes”

Philly punk rockers Mannequin Pussy are three for three with the new singles from their upcoming album, I Got Heaven. Whereas the title track was acerbic and punchy and “I Don’t Know You” was a slow burn, “Sometimes” is a jangly, pop-inflected stomper that drives forward at a quick pace but relishes in its swooning textures. It’s a lovely blend of Mannequin Pussy’s various modes: snarling delivery; punishing drums; and rich guitar riffs.

Helado Negro – “I Just Want To Wake Up With You”

Roberto Carlos Lange, who records under the sobriquet Helado Negro, is known for his woozy grooves and soothing vocals. His latest preview of the forthcoming Phasor has plenty of both. As its name suggests, “I Just Want To Wake Up With You” is a paean to domesticity and settling in with a loved one. It sounds as cozy as a late Sunday morning spent in bed.

Julie Byrne – Julie Byrne With Laugh Cry Laugh

Over the summer, Buffalo songwriter Julie Byrne released her meditative, delicate, and groundbreaking third album, The Greater Wings. Now, she’s already back with more material, this time alongside Taryn Blake Miller and Emily Fontana. The four-track EP, aptly called Julie Byrne With Laugh Cry Laugh, is as gut-wrenchingly astounding as you’d expect. From the drum-free, latticed opener “’22” to the light finger-picking on a cover of Jackson Browne’s “These Days,” we can only hope that Laugh Cry Laugh isn’t a one-and-done collaboration.

Mo Troper – Troper Sings Brion

Mo Troper isn’t a stranger to covers. In 2021, he covered The Beatles’ Revolver in full, and, back in 2014 with his old band Your Rival, he reimagined Beyoncé’s “Irreplaceable” as a lost track from Weezer’s Pinkerton. However, Troper Sings Brion is one of his most fully realized visions yet. Composed of 11 Jon Brion demos as interpreted by the Portland indie rocker, Troper Sings Brion breathes new life into the deepest of deep cuts and presents them to a new audience. Just as last year’s MTV struck a shrewd balance between noisy discord and hook-driven power-pop, Troper’s readings of Brion’s rarities, uniting dissonance and harmony, come across as the purest labor of love.

Madi Diaz – “Don’t Do Me Good”

On Madi Diaz’s last full-length album, 2021’s History Of A Feeling, the Nashville singer-songwriter chronicled the dissolution of a long-term romance. Scheduled for release this February, Weird Faith examines the insecurities that arise at the start of a new one. “Don’t Do Me Good,” her duet with country fixture Kacey Musgraves, documents these ups and downs in vivid detail. “Every time I walk away, I stay, you knew I would,” they sing together over a swaying, 6/8 shuffle. It all comes to a climax toward the end when Diaz and Musgraves belt in unison, leaving all their feelings on the table.

Ali Sethi and Nicolás Jaar – Intiha

Ali Sethi found immense success with his 2022 single, “Pasoori.” It was so ubiquitous, in fact, that it was one of the most Googled songs of the year. Rather than following up on commercial hit potential, though, the Pakistani artist has opted for the freeform, amorphous compositions on Intiha, a collaborative album with electronic producer Nicolás Jaar. Recontextualizing Jaar’s 2020 solo album, Telas, Sethi intersperses Jaar’s atmospheric tracks with extemporaneous vocals rooted in Urdu poetry. Structurally, Sethi adopts ghazals, a Sufi artform concerned with love and loss. Intiha, consequently, is an exercise in reconceptualization, using extant blueprints for newfound expression.

Water From Your Eyes — Crushed By Everyone

Experimental pop duo Water From Your Eyes released one of the best albums of the year, Everyone’s Crushed. That album’s commitment to deconstruction elevated Rachel Brown’s and Nate Amos’ levels of delightful absurdity to wondrous new heights. Somehow, they’ve taken that penchant to an even further extreme; they’ve handed over the tools to other like-minded artists, including Nourished By Time, Mandy, Indiana, and Sword II. Billed as a remix album, Crushed By Everyone delivers on its namesake. From Mandy, Indiana’s clubby rendition of “Remember Not My Name” to Amos’ own brutal, sludgy take on “Barley,” Water From Your Eyes’ singular vision of inscrutable fun cuts through the clutter, even when other musicians take over the boards.

Why Isn’t Disney Releasing ‘The Bikeriders’ With Tom Hardy, Austin Butler, And Jodie Comer?

the bikeriders
20th century

A motorcycle drama from Take Shelter and Mud director Jeff Nichols that stars Tom Hardy, Austin Butler, Jodie Comer, Michael Shannon, Mike Faist, and Norman Reedus? That sounds like a good movie that people would want to see! Well, too bad, because The Bikeriders is no longer coming out next month.

And maybe never in theaters.

Hollywood newsletter TheInSneider (via Variety) reports that following Disney’s decision last month to remove The Bikeriders from its schedule, “financier New Regency is looking for a new distributor for the star-studded movie… Insiders at the company simply felt there wasn’t enough time to mount a proper publicity campaign following the conclusion of the SAG-AFTRA strike, especially with the holiday season right around the corner.” The most likely scenario is The Bikeriders coming out on streaming.

Back in October, Disney unset The Bikeriders from its planned wide theatrical release on December 1 after Beyoncé announced that her Renaissance concert film would be released in AMC theaters on the same day. Beyoncé’s Renaissance isn’t expected to perform quite as well as Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour film, but it should open north of $20 million.

Don’t blame, Beyoncé. Blame the industry for only releasing blockbusters or potential Oscar winners in theaters. The Bikeriders looked like a modest hit with a $40 million budget that had little chance of getting nominated for Best Picture. Those types of films are relegated to streaming these days. Bummer.

You can watch The Bikeriders trailer below.

A Drake Holiday Gift Guide For The 6 God Fans In Your Life

drake gift guide 2023

The holidays are upon us, and there’s no greater gift than the gift of music. This holiday season, you can give the Drake fan in your life all sorts of goodies and treats.

Uproxx has put together a nifty little guide for Drizzy fans, for those who simply can’t have too much of the prolific rapper. At the time of writing, no Black Friday deals have been announced, but fans can purchase some fun items just in time for jolly season (and some of the options below might just get price cuts as Black Friday approaches).

Dave’s-giving Party Pack from Dave’s Hot Chicken

Drake fans who wish to get the festivities started early with the Dave’s Hot Turkey Party Pack from Dave’s Hot Chicken — a chain in which Drake is an investor. The Dave’s-giving party pack comes with Winter Sports-Themed Bibs, a Floral Centerpiece Cutout featuring Dave’s heads as tulips, photobooth props, and much more. Guests of Southern California- and Detroit-area Dave’s stores can add this pack to orders of sliders, tenders, or fries for $10 more, or purchase for an additional $12. Granted, this merch isn’t directly related to Drake, but makes for a fun addition to Drake memorabilia.

Items are available in select stores only.

Tickets to Drake’s It’s All A Blur — The Big What? Tour

Drake and J. Cole will kick off 2024 with their North American It’s All A Blur — The Big What? Tour. While they won’t be hitting too many major cities, Drake does plan to touch on the cities he missed on the first go-around of the tour. This is ideal for Drake fans who also didn’t get to make the first iteration of It’s All A Blur.

Tickets are available for purchase here.

Drake and Kendra Samir’s Titles Ruin Everything poetry book

Drake and longtime collaborator Kendra Samir released a poetry book called Titles Ruin Everything, a collection of words and lines Drake previously described as a “stream of consciousness.” While Drake’s most recent music has prompted some mixed reactions, the poetry book makes for a lovely addition to one’s coffee table.

The book is available for purchase through Drake’s official merchandiser, Drake Related.

Drake’s Views hoodie and sweatpants

Keep it cozy with loungewear embedded with the logo from Drake’s 2016 album, Views — which many fans hail as the quintessential Drake project.

Items are available via Drake Related.

Drake’s Good Thoughts candle

Manifest positive energy into your home with the Good Thoughts candle. Crafted with orange and fir balsam and paired with rose and sandalwood provides a spiritual experience within the house.

Candles are available for purchase through Better World Fragrance House.

Drake’s Nike NOCTA Glides

Kick it like Drake in these stylish new NOCTA Glides, which he designed as a partnership with Nike. These may be a bit more pricey than some of the aforementioned items, but they’ll run you cheaper than some of the tickets for the It’s All A Blur shows. Granted, you may have to fight some Ticketmaster-esque crowds.

The Glides are available for purchase through NOCTA.

How To Watch ‘Saltburn’ With Jacob Elordi & Barry Keoghan

Saltburn
Amazon Studios

If there is one universal truth, it’s that any film starring Barry Keoghan will be both weird/unsettling and also worth watching. Add Jacob Elordi, and you’re in for a really bizarre time in the cinema.

Keoghan stars in Saltburn, the latest story from Promising Young Woman director Emerald Fennell. The film follows a misfit student who gets invited to a classmate’s summer home for some rich people’s shenanigans while trying to distance himself from his own home life. Here is the official synopsis for the film:

Academy Award winning filmmaker Emerald Fennell (Promising Young Woman) brings us a beautifully wicked tale of privilege and desire. Struggling to find his place at Oxford University, student Oliver Quick (Barry Keoghan) finds himself drawn into the world of the charming and aristocratic Felix Catton (Jacob Elordi), who invites him to Saltburn, his eccentric family’s sprawling estate, for a summer never to be forgotten.

Saltburn was given a limited release earlier this month and will hit even more theaters this week. While guessing streaming release dates can be hard, there are some clues here. The movie is an Amazon MGM Studios production, meaning that it will likely head to Prime after its theatrical run. This is normally about 45 days, meaning Saltburn could be on streaming just in time for the New Year.

If you’re still looking for some more Barry Keoghan weirdness, check out The Killing of a Sacred Deer on Netflix.
