Game 1 between the San Antonio Spurs and Portland Trail Blazers marks the start of an exciting time for two teams breaking playoff droughts.
Portland last made the playoffs in 2020-21, losing in the opening round. The Spurs have been absent from the playoffs since the 2018-19 season. As a result, both fanbases are eager to return to playoff glory.
With two newly drought-free teams, this also marks the first playoff appearance for several young stars. For Victor Wembanyama, a former Rookie of the Year winner and current MVP and DPOY candidate, this will be the first litmus test for his playoff performance.
Similarly, the Blazers have a young core with limited playoff experience. This will be the first playoff action for Shaedon Sharpe and Scoot Henderson. Even leading scorer Deni Avdija only played in one playoff series, an opening round loss during his rookie year in Washington.
