A very rich night in the NBA ended, with 10 games and a lot to tell about individuality and more. Plenty of space for the current big names, with great impact also for emerging players who want to carve out a space for themselves among themselves. But let’s see how everything went.
For the Indiana Pacers (22-15) third quarter winner against i Washington Wizards (6-31): 112-104 with 18 points and 13 rebounds by Myles Turner and 7 men in double figures. On the other hand, 28 from Jordan Poole are not enough; no field for Danilo Gallinari. Between Detroit Pistons (3-35) e San Antonio Spurs (6-30), in a match of relative interest given the zero playoff ambitions, ends 108-130 with the first triple double of his career Victor Wembanyama, who totaled 16 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists. Top scorer Keldon Johnson at 17, on the other side 21 and 12 by Jalen Duren.
Also overwhelming Sacramento Kings (23-14) on Charlotte Hornets (8-27): the final result is 98-123 with the Keegan Murray-Domantas Sabonis duo doing very well given their 25 and 24 respective points. On the opposite side 24 by Miles Bridges. For the Boston Celtics (29-8), however, suffered success against the more than combative The Minnesota Timberwolves (26-11): extra time is needed to make it 127-120, also aided by a recovery in the last quarter. The free throws to make it 111-111 are by Edwards, Tatum misses for two, then in the last minute the Celtics emerge. Indeed, the two big ones emerge: Jayson Tatum writes 45, Jaylen Brown helps him with 36 and 11. For the T’Wolves 29 from Anthony Edwards and 25 with 13 rebounds from Karl-Anthony Towns.
Basketball: Virtus Bologna, this time the Euroleague is not smiling. Maccabi Tel Aviv escapes in the final quarter and wins
External success also for the Oklahoma City Thunder (25-11), who win by 120-128 Miami Heat (21-16). Shai Gilgeous-Alexander continues to put in high-class performances, in this case with 28 points combined with 23 from Chet Holmgren. For the Heat, who fell to the distance after a good first quarter, 25 and 11 rebounds from Bam Adebayo. Other additional in Atlanta Hawks (15-21) e Philadelphia 76ers (23-13), which however ended up in the hands of the Hawks 139-132 thanks to several great evenings: Trae Young scored 28 points and 11 assists, Jalen Johnson 25 and 16 rebounds and Dejounte Murray 25 points. Tyrese Maxey’s 35 and Tobias Harris’ 32 aren’t enough for the Sixers.
Other additional among Chicago Bulls (21-18) and the Houston Rockets (18-18): the result is 124-119 in favor of the Bulls, who put a stop to the spectacular comeback in the last 9 minutes from -16 (101-85) and take home the full spoils with 30 points from Coby White and the doubles doubles by Zach LaVine and NikolaVucevic. For Alperen Sengun’s Rockets 25. Sensational, however, the collapse of Golden State Warriors (17-20) vs New Orleans Pelicans (23-15): the final is 105-141 and the best scorer for the San Francisco franchise is Moses Moody with 21 points. Celebration for the Pelicans: seven in double figures and Jonas Valanciunas at 21, but with a very different weight, plus Zion Williamson who scores 19.
For the Utah Jazz (19-20) really important success against i Denver Nuggets (26-13): in the 124-111 both Lauri Markkanen (26 and 12 rebounds) and Jordan Clarkson (27 off the bench) stand out. 3 points and 2 assists in 20’31” per Simone Fontecchio. Nikola Jokic’s 27 and 11 rebounds are not enough for the Nuggets. THE Los Angeles Clippers (24-13), which in the meantime they surprisingly extended with Kawhi Leonardthey win 126-120 against i Toronto Raptors (15-23). Leonard himself, together with Paul George, writes 29 on the scoreboard, while on the other side there are 25 from Immanuel Quickley and 24 from RJ Barrett.
