(ANSA) – ROME, NOVEMBER 24 – The Celtics return to success by overcoming the Mavs in the Italian NBA night thanks to the Tatum-Brown duo and despite a 42-point super Luka Doncic. Milwaukee loses against Chicago in a sprint, the streak of successes of the Kings is interrupted at seven by knocking out in Atlanta against a 35-point Trae Young. Nikola Jokic drags Denver to victory in overtime against OKC, Brooklyn goes to Toronto, Cleveland makes four in a row at home, Philadelphia loses away to Charlotte due to absences.
The first half in Boston is stunning: at halftime above 21 (highest margin in the season for the Celtics), the gap extends to +27 in the third quarter, before a partial 13-2 Mavs, who get back together until at -9 with three and a half minutes to play. However, the hosts take advantage of the excellent three-point shooting (17/34, 50% exact) to control the match and beat Dallas for the first time in 5 direct matches 125-112.
Simone Fontecchio in double figures: 10 points in the knockout suffered by the Utah Jazz at home against the Detroit Pistons in 12 minutes, 2/3 from the arc and 4/5 free throws with 2 rebounds. (HANDLE).
