How conference seeding works
This view shows how the playoff field would look if the season ended today. Seeds are by record only: 1 to 6 go straight to the playoffs, 7 to 10 enter the play-in tournament for the last two spots, and the two lines mark the playoff and play-in cutoffs.
Division titles count only as tiebreakers.
