The 76ers completed an incredible comeback, beating the Celtics 109-100 in Boston to win their first playoff series against Boston since 1982. Joel Embiid, less than a month after an emergency appendectomy, dropped 34 points and 12 rebounds. Tyrese Maxey added 30 points while rookie VJ Edgecombe scored 23 with five 3-pointers. Boston blew a 3-1 series lead for the first time in franchise history while playing without Jayson Tatum (left knee stiffness).

The Pistons eliminated the Magic in Game 7 as Cade Cunningham averaged 36.3 points across the final three games. Cleveland advanced past Toronto in a series where the home team won every game, with Jarrett Allen posting 14 points and 10 rebounds in the third quarter alone during Sunday's 114-102 clincher. The Cavs now head to Detroit for a second-round matchup.

Golden Tempo produced a historic rally at 23-1 odds to win the Kentucky Derby, running past co-favorite Renegade and earning a $3.1 million payout. Cherie DeVaux became the first female trainer to win the Run for the Roses. In golf, Cameron Young captured his third win in 14 starts at the Cadillac Championship, finishing six strokes ahead at 19 under to collect a $3.6 million check.
