The NBA's playoff chase enters its final days. Here's a look at what's happening

It’s playoff-positioning time in the NBA.

Going into Sunday, there are 68 games left in the season. The 10 Eastern Conference postseason teams are set; Cleveland, Boston, New York, Indiana, Milwaukee and Detroit are in the playoffs. Orlando, Atlanta, Chicago and Miami have clinched play-in spots.

In the Western Conference, Oklahoma City is the No. 1 seed and Houston is in the playoffs. The Los Angeles Lakers, Denver, Golden State and Memphis enter Sunday holding playoff spots, with Minnesota and the Los Angeles Clippers chasing them and trying to stay out of the play-in. Dallas and Sacramento have the inside track for the last two West play-in berths, with Phoenix (two games back entering Sunday), Portland (3 1/2 back) and San Antonio (five back with five to play) still alive for those as well.

Add it up, and 23 of the 30 teams are still playing for something other than lottery odds with a week to go in the regular season.

Numbers watch

—The NBA record for total 3-pointers made in a season is on pace to fall on Sunday. There have been 31,394 made 3s so far this season; the record is 31,579, set last season. The single-season record for attempts was broken on Friday.

—Boston (1,370) has broken the single-season team record for 3-pointers, set two years ago by Golden State (1,363). The Celtics set the mark Friday night. The Celtics are now four 3-point tries from breaking the single-season attempts record of 3,721, set by Houston in 2018-19.

—For the first time, the NBA could have three players make 300 3-pointers in a season. Minnesota's Anthony Edwards has 303, Detroit's Malik Beasley has 301 and Golden State’s Stephen Curry has 293. Edwards and Beasley — both of whom crossed the 300-make threshold on Saturday — are the fourth and fifth players to do so in NBA history. Curry has five seasons of 300 3s or more, James Harden has one and Klay Thompson has one.

—There have been four instances of teammates each having 250 3-pointers in a season: Curry and Thompson did it four times when they were the Warriors' “Splash Brothers.” That was it — until now. Boston could have three players reach that number this season: Derrick White is already there with 253, Jayson Tatum has 243 and Payton Pritchard has 242.
