7 can’t-miss sports events this weekend

Hoo, boy, sports fans. I don’t know about you, but I’m sports exhausted. This week was a doozy! We had playoff basketball, regular baseball, the NFL draft, and the lead-up to the NFL draft (which is, in and of itself, a sport). And now, over the next few days, we have more playoff basketball, NFL draft, playoff hockey, baseball [*takes deep breath*] but at least we have the weekend to do it!

Speaking of the NFL draft, we had a huge party here at SB Nation during the first round. There was football insight, jokes (we played a game called, “is this establishment in Tampa Bay a strip club or an art gallery based on name alone?”), and all your favorite SB Nation personalities. You can check out the madness here, because, unfortunately for all of us, nothing on the internet ever goes away.

And now, your weekend guide to #sports.

There will be playoffs! There are no games Saturday, but there are definitely two games Sunday afternoon. We just don’t know what they’ll be until we know the results of the Game 6s (Celtics-Bulls, Clippers-Jazz, Wizards-Hawks) on Friday night. We’ll either be watching Game 1s or Game 7s, so teams will be going on first dates or breaking up. Both can be disastrous.

Sunday’s possibilities (all times ET):

If the Clippers win Friday: Jazz vs. Clippers, Game 7, at 3:30 p.m. on ABC

If the Jazz win Friday: Jazz vs. Warriors, Game 1, at 3:30 p.m., channel TBD

If the Celtics and Wizards win Friday: Wizards vs. Celtics, Game 1, (probably at 1 p.m.), channel TBD

If the Celtics win and Wizards lose Friday, Hawks vs. Wizards, Game 7 (probably at 1 p.m.), channel TBD

If the Celtics lose and Wizards win Friday, Bulls vs. Celtics, Game 7 (probably at 1 p.m.), channel TBD

Capitals vs. Penguins, Game 2, Saturday, 8 p.m. on NBC

Rangers vs. Senators, Game 2, Saturday, 3 p.m. on NBC

Blues vs. Predators, Game 3, Sunday, 3 p.m. on NBC

Ducks vs. Oilers, Game 3, Sunday, 7 p.m. on NBCSN

It’s too bad there’s no NFL stuff to talk abou— SIKE! THE NFL DRAFT IS HAPPENING! We made it through the first round on Thursday, and had that big ol’ party here at SB Nation. You should stay tuned to our NFL desk for updated coverage about which guys your teams are scooping up in the later rounds of the draft.

Tottenham Hotspur vs. Arsenal — Sunday, 11:30 a.m., NBCSN

“Arsenal has been better than their North London rivals for most of history,” says SB Nation soccer editor Kevin McCauley. “So much so that Arsenal fans have a name for the day their finish ahead of Tottenham in the standings is confirmed. But Tottenham has been the better team this season, and they can ensure that “St. Totteringham’s Day” won’t take place this year if they win. If that happens, it’ll be the first time Spurs have pulled it off since 1995.”

Friday, Golf Channel, 3:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.

Saturday and Sunday, 1 to 2:30 p.m., Golf Channel, then 3-6 p.m. on CBS

This event is pretty cool, because it’s the first two-man event on the PGA Tour since the early 1980s. There’s a strong field in New Orleans this year. Rickie Fowler and Jason Day are a team, and Jordan Spieth is playing with a friend from Texas, Ryan Palmer. They play alternate shot on Thursday and Saturday, and best ball on Friday and Sunday.

European Badminton Individuals Championships 2017, Saturday, 6 a.m., ESPN 3

Badminton is the best sport.

OFF SB NATION

Clay Skipper put together an oral history of Mr. Irrelevants, the last guys picked at the draft, for GQ.

Wright Thompson on how Pat Riley can’t quit the NBA.

Robert Mays on T.J. Watt, J.J.’s younger brother, for The Ringer.

Megan Birch-McMichael on Ashley Eisenmenger, a legally blind triathlete.

Dion Waiters on Dion Waiters.

Dan Wetzel on why Mitchell Trubitsky would welcome the worst job in the NFL (quarterback for the Browns, sorry Cleveland).

Depends on what you’re into. Go to the movies, movies are fun! Maybe read a book. You could see friends. Hang out with your family. Shoot some hoops in the driveway.

The weekend is your oyster, sports fans.
