Legendary LeBron: the Lakers beat the Warriors
LeBron James closes with 56 points and 10 rebounds, bringing the Lakers back to success after 4 defeats in a row: Golden State is at the expense of that, despite Stephen Curry’s 30 points. Miami overcomes Philadelphia with merit, without James Harden and jammed in attack: the Heat are increasingly first in the East. Everything is easy for Memphis who overwhelms Orlando and climbs to 2nd place in the West, Dallas wins in a sprint against Sacramento even without Luka Doncic, Charlotte postpones coach Popovich’s party, Minnesota beats Portland
DALLAS MAVERICKS-SACRAMENTO KINGS 114-113 | Dorian Finney-Smith scores from the right corner the triple that with 3.3 seconds from the siren allows Dallas to recover 19 points and beat Sacramento for the second time in the last week despite the absence of the injured Luka Doncic – stopped by a problem with his left big toe (the first absence of January 7 to date for him and the 16th season). The Mavericks thus win the sixth game of the last seven games
To take the place of Doncic Spencer Dinwiddie thinks about it in the best way – to the first as a starter with the Texan jersey: 36 points (maximum in season) with 7 assists and 11/22 shooting, in addition to Jalen Brunson’s 23 and 17 with five triples for Finney-Smith. The absence of the Slovenian All-Star it didn’t stop the NBA from holding the night in his honor, however (the match was played at 11pm for us), with groups of thousands of Slovenians arriving in Dallas just for him
The Kings waste the final overtaking opportunity with Harrison Barnes from over 10 meters, while the best scorer for Sacramento is De’Aaron Fox with his 44 points on the scoresheet, 18/31 shooting, three triples and six assists, with Domantas Sabonis giving him a hand under the basket with 15 points, 10 rebounds and six assists. However, their contribution is not enough to avoid defeat n ° 42 for the guests – the one that will not allow Californians to have a record higher than 50% of victories for the 16th straight season, no franchise in NBA history has done worse
