2026年4月8日，星期三，在圣安东尼奥弗罗斯特银行中心举行的一场NBA比赛中，圣安东尼奥马刺队后卫迪伦·哈珀 (Dylan Harper) (2) 在波特兰开拓者队前锋德尼·阿夫迪亚 (Deni Avdija) (8) 面前投篮。马刺队将在季后赛首轮对阵开拓者队。第一场比赛将于周日在弗罗斯特银行中心举行。
历经82场常规赛以及近48分钟的激战，马刺队终于揭晓了他们七年来首个季后赛对手的身份。
你好，波特兰开拓者。
周二晚上，开拓者队造访菲尼克斯，在一场异常激烈的西部附加赛中以114-110险胜，锁定了西部第7号种子席位，并赢得了在首轮挑战2号种子马刺队的机会。
系列赛第一场定于周日晚上8点在弗罗斯特银行中心举行。
全明星后卫阿夫迪亚——在接下来的一个半星期里，他注定会成为圣安东尼奥的“头号公敌”——全场砍下41分，带领波特兰完成了一场疯狂的逆转。
在比赛还剩6分半钟时，开拓者队还落后11分。在比赛仅剩3分半钟时，他们仍落后8分。
凭借杰拉米·格兰特 (Jerami Grant) 在比赛还剩1分54秒时投进的一记三分球，波特兰以107-106反超。但双方的拉锯战并未结束。
在阿夫迪亚于比赛还剩16.1秒时打成“2+1”帮助开拓者以112-110重新夺回领先优势之前，场上又经历了三次领先交替。随后，杰伦·格林 (Jalen Green) 在另一端三分投篮不中，格兰特快下扣篮得手，为波特兰的胜利画上了句号。
2026年4月14日，星期二，在菲尼克斯举行的一场NBA附加赛下半场，波特兰开拓者队前锋阿夫迪亚（左）在菲尼克斯太阳队前锋狄龙·布鲁克斯 (Dillon Brooks) (3) 犯规的情况下得分。阿夫迪亚全场砍下41分，帮助波特兰锁定了第7号种子席位，并开启了与圣安东尼奥马刺队的季后赛首轮系列赛。
菲尼克斯太阳队将与周三金州勇士队与洛杉矶快船队附加赛的胜者争夺第8号种子席位。
波特兰的这场胜利拉开了一场引人注目的首轮系列赛序幕，超级巨星维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 已准备好在圣安东尼奥迎来他的季后赛首秀。
“他们是一支伟大的球队，非常有天赋，”阿夫迪亚在周二的 Prime Video 赛后节目中表示，“他们也很年轻，所以季后赛经验也不多。这将会是一场硬仗。”
战绩为62胜20负的马刺队自2019年以来首次打进季后赛，当年他们在七场大战中惜败给正处于上升期的丹佛掘金队。由前马刺中锋蒂亚戈·斯普利特 (Tiago Splitter) 执教的开拓者队（42胜40负）则是自2021年以来首次开启季后赛征程，当年他们同样在首轮负于掘金队。
马刺队在常规赛对阵开拓者队的系列赛中以2-1领先，其中包括4月8日在主场以112-101取得的胜利。
第二场比赛定于周二晚上7点在弗罗斯特银行中心举行。系列赛随后将移师波特兰，第三场和第四场分别于4月24日和4月26日举行。
系列赛其余场次安排目前待定。

Spurs to face Portland Trail Blazers in first round of playoffs
San Antonio Spurs guard Dylan Harper (2) shoots over Portland Trail Blazers forward Deni Avdija (8) during an NBA game at Frost Bank Center in San Antonio, Wednesday, April 8, 2026. The Spurs are set to face the Trail Blazers in the first round of the playoffs. Game 1 is Sunday at the Frost Bank Center.
It took 82 games and nearly 48 more minutes, but the Spurs finally know the identity of their first playoff opponent in seven years.
Hello, Portland Trail Blazers.
The Blazers went to Phoenix on Tuesday night and won a wild and wooly Western Conference play-in game 114-110, earning the No. 7 seed and earning a first-round date with the second-seeded Spurs.
Game 1 is scheduled for 8 p.m. Sunday at the Frost Bank Center.
All-Star guard Deni Advija — who is destined to spend the next week and a half as Public Enemy No. 1 in San Antonio — scored 41 points to lead Portland to a frenetic comeback victory.
With 6½ minutes remaining, the Blazers trailed by 11 points. With 3½ minutes to go, they were down by eight.
Portland went ahead 107-106 on a Jeremi Grant 3-pointer with 1:54 to play. The Blazers wouldn’t stay there.
There would be three more lead changes before Advija put the Blazers back on top 112-110 on a bucket-and-foul with 16.1 seconds to go. Jalen Green missed a 3-pointer on the other end, giving rise to a run-out dunk from Grant to put the finishing touches on Portland’s night.
Portland Trail Blazers forward Deni Avdija, left, scores and is fouled by Phoenix Suns forward Dillon Brooks (3) during the second half of an NBA play-in tournament basketball game, Tuesday, April 14, 2026, in Phoenix. Avdija scored 41 points to help Portland clinch the No. 7 seed and set up a first-round playoff series against the San Antonio Spurs.
Phoenix will face the winner of Wednesday’s play-in game between Golden State and the Los Angeles Clippers for the No. 8 seed.
Portland’s victory sets up an intriguing first-round series in San Antonio, where superstar Victor Wembanyama is primed to make his playoff debut.
“They’re a great team, very talented,” Advija said on the Prime Video postgame show Tuesday. “They’re young, too, so they don’t have a lot of playoff experience as well. It’s going to be a fight.”
The 62-20 Spurs are making their first playoff appearance since 2019, when they dropped a seven-game series against a Denver team on the rise. Coached by former Spurs big man Tiago Splitter, the Blazers (42-40) are set for their first postseason trip since 2021, when they also lost to the Nuggets in the first round.
San Antonio won the regular season series over Portland 2-1, including a 112-101 Spurs home victory on April 8.
Game 2 is scheduled for 7 p.m. Tuesday at the Frost Bank Center. The series shifts to Portland for Game 3 on April 24 and Game 4 on April 26.
The rest of the series remains TBD.
