Four games Sunday; and the contender list halved. NBA: New York demolished Philadelphia 144-114 at Wells Fargo Center to complete the 4-0 sweep, advancing to a second consecutive Eastern Conference Final. Brunson + KAT + Anunoby + Bridges all in form; Knicks will await the DET/CLE winner with 8 days of rest. NBA: Minnesota beat San Antonio 114-109 at Target Center after Victor Wembanyama was ejected in the second quarter; Anthony Edwards seized the moment with 36 pts in 40 minutes; series tied 2-2 with G5 in San Antonio Tuesday. NHL: Montreal routed Buffalo 6-2 at Bell Centre (second straight blowout) to take a 2-1 series lead; rookie Jakub Dobes outduels Lyon for the second straight game. NHL: Anaheim beat Vegas 4-3 at Honda Center to even the Pacific semi 2-2; Knights played without Mark Stone (injury). Note: a previous wrap of Friday's VGK-ANA G3 incorrectly logged it as ANA 3-1; the actual result was Vegas 6-2 on Mitch Marner's first career playoff hat trick (4 pts, Vegas led 5-0 after two). All site data corrected.
