    The New York Knicks steamrolled the Boston Celtics in a 119–81 blowout win in Game 6, punching their ticket to the Eastern Conference Finals for the first time since 2000.

    On April 29, 2025, in a pivotal Game 5 against the LA Clippers, the Nuggets found themselves in a nail-biter. With the game tied and seconds ticking away, Nikola Jokić launched a three-pointer that rimmed out. Seizing the moment, Gordon soared for a putback dunk at the buzzer, securing a 131–115 victory. This remarkable play marked the first known game-winning buzzer-beater putback dunk in NBA playoff history.

    Just days later, on May 5, Denver faced the top-seeded Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals. Trailing by 14 points, the Nuggets mounted a furious comeback. In the final seconds, after a series of strategic plays and missed free throws by the Thunder, Gordon found himself open beyond the arc. With ice in his veins, he drained a three-pointer with just three seconds left, sealing a 121–119 win for Denver.
