Here at The Action Network, we are on a mission to determine the best 1-on-1 player in the NBA. To do this, we released a 64-player bracket for this tournament, and a week or so ago we started simulating the first round. You can re-watch all of those games here.
Those first 32 matchups are now over, and we'll be moving onto the Round of 32 starting this Wednesday, April 8. And, boy, do we have some fun matchups: Dame vs. Luka, Tatum vs. Brown, Durant vs. Klay, KAT vs. Zion, Simmons vs. Ingram — the list goes on.
We also have some Cinderellas who upset strong players in the first round: Gordon Hayward, Kristaps Porzingis, Jaren Jackson Jr., Nikola Vucevic and Nikola Jokic to name a few.
