Chicago – National basketball player Daniel Theis still has the chance of the best starting position in the NBA playoffs with the Boston Celtics.
The record champions won 117:94 at the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday evening and remain on the heels of the leaders of the Miami Heat. Theis started the Celtics’ 50th win of the season and scored a good 15 points and six rebounds. Of the top teams in the Eastern Conference, the Celtics are currently in the best form, with eight wins in ten games ahead of Thursday’s clash with defending champions Milwaukee Bucks.
The Dallas Mavericks are in similarly good shape in the Western Conference. The 131:113 against the Detroit Pistons was the seventh win in the past ten games for the team around Luka Doncic, who recorded the best values of the game with 26 points and 14 assists. National player Maxi Kleber was absent again due to problems with his right ankle.
In the New York duel between the Knicks and the Brooklyn Nets, Kevin Durant had a strong evening and led the Nets to a 110:98 in Madison Square Garden.
