During the NBA Playoffs, NBA players don't need a whole lot of extra motivation to go out and do their best on the basketball court. If you can't get excited about an NBA playoff game, then you're probably in the wrong profession. But many NBA players do try to get as fired up as possible before big playoff games by turning to music to get their adrenaline going. They have specific playlists that they use to get ready to go to battle.
What's on those playlists? Well, with the 2014 NBA Playoffs set to tip off on Saturday, the NBA just revealed what a bunch of playoff-bound players plan on listening to during the postseason. From Jay Z and Notorious B.I.G. to Yo Gotti and Rich Homie Quan, it sounds like NBA players are going to be listening to a little bit of everything once the playoffs start. Click through to see what a few of your favorite players are going to be bumping as they attempt to make a run to the 2014 NBA Finals…
