National player Daniel Theis and the Boston Celtics have successfully returned to the NBA professional basketball league. The Massachusetts team won the Indiana Pacers 116: 111 and celebrated their second win in the fourth game of the season – two days earlier Boston had lost very narrowly in the same place (107: 108).
On Tuesday evening, the record champions prevailed mainly thanks to a strong final quarter (33:17) and inflicted their first defeat of the season on the Pacers. Center Theis was again in the starting line-up and scored four points and four rebounds in just over 23 minutes.
Isaiah Hartenstein conceded the third defeat in the fourth game with the Denver Nuggets, the German got three points and three rebounds at 115: 125 at the Sacramento Kings from the bench. The Washington Wizards with national team colleague Isaac Bonga are still without a win. The team from the capital lost 107-115 against the Chicago Bulls. As a starter, Bonga remained without points (4 rebounds) in almost 16 minutes, Moritz Wagner was again not in action for the Wizards.
The Milwaukee Bucks set an NBA record at an impressive 144: 97 at Miami Heat: 29 successful three-point throws are a new record in the strongest basketball league in the world, the previous (27) was set by the Houston Rockets in April 2019 .
Two days earlier, Milwaukee had lost at the New York Knicks (110: 130) – and only hit seven times from a distance. “On some evenings the basketball gods are with you,” said Bucks coach Mike Budenholzer, “I think today was one of those evenings.” His team has two wins and two losses.
