Before the first round officially gets underway Friday, the play-in tournament will decide which teams advance to the postseason or head to Cancun.

• Regular season seeds No. 7 and 8 play a single game, with the winner going straight to the playoffs as the No. 7 seed (to face the No. 2 seed). • Regular season seeds Nos. 9 and 10 play a single-elimination game, from which the loser is out and goes home.
