  3. 2024 NBA play-offs: Top seeds Boston Celtics beat Miami Heat in opener

    The Boston Celtics started their NBA play-off campaign with a 114-94 win over the Miami Heat.

    Jayson Tatum's triple-double helped the top seeds to lead throughout against last season's losing finalists.

    The Heat entered the play-offs as the number eight seeds after beating the Chicago Bulls in a play-in eliminator.

    But without injured star player Jimmy Butler, the Heat found the Celtics too strong in the opener to the best-of-seven series.

    Tatum scored 23 points, had 10 rebounds and provided 10 assists - and was one of six players to score double figures for Boston, but warned his side they "can't relax" against the team which eliminated them from the play-offs last year.

    "They're not going to give up, they're not going to lay down," he said.

    There are 16 teams in the first round of the play-offs, playing best-of-seven series in a knockout format. The eight winners go through to the next round.

    James Harden scored 28 points for the Los Angeles Clippers as they beat the Dallas Mavericks 109-97 in the first game of their series.

    The home side led 56-30 at half-time and despite a fight back led by Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving, with 33 and 31 points respectively, the Mavericks were left with too much to do.

    The Indiana Pacers visit the Milwaukee Bucks later, while the New Orleans Pelicans travel to face the Oklahoma City Thunder.

  4. Women's Six Nations 2024: England face France in another Grand Slam decider

    Women's Six Nations: France v England

    Venue: Stade Chaban-Delmas, Bordeaux Date: Saturday, 27 April Kick-off: 16:45 BST
    Coverage: Watch live on BBC One, BBC iPlayer and online; live commentary on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra; text commentary, highlights and report on BBC Sport website and app.

    England's dominant 14-try victory over Ireland in front of the second-highest women's rugby crowd of 48,778 has set up a Grand Slam decider against France for the third year in a row.

    Victory in Bordeaux on Saturday would secure a third successive Grand Slam and sixth Six Nations title in a row for the Red Roses.

    The competitive nature of the tournament has lacked over recent years, with England romping to big victories, but the decider has always lived up to hype.

    Only five points separated the sides at Twickenham in front of a record women's crowd of 58,498 last year, 12 points were between the pair in Bayonne a year prior and four points in 2021.

    The Red Roses have had the edge over their French rivals ever since their last Six Nations defeat in 2018, however, they have had to work for it.
