Series of ten successes for the Celtics, Giannis carries the Bucks
The Boston Celtics, led by Jayson Tatum, resisted Luka Doncic to beat the Dallas Mavericks 138-110 this Friday and extend their NBA winning streak to ten games. Antetokounmpo scored 46 points for the Bucks against the Bulls.
The Celtics on a bulldozer
Best team of the regular season, leader in the West, the Celtics had a tenth success in a row, a 47th victory this season (for only 12 defeats).
Thanks to Jayson Tatum’s 32 points and the general three-point skill (21 successful), Boston outclassed Dallas, who was unable to do anything despite the 37 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists from its star Luka Doncic – his 12th triple-double of the season.
“Simply put, we have a really good team,” Tatum said. Boston is the first team this season to win ten in a row.
The Warriors travel well… despite everything
The Golden State Warriors extended their away winning streak to eight with a 120-105 win over the Raptors in Toronto.
Stephen Curry scored 25 points and Jonathan Kuminga added 24 points for the Warriors, who had poorly prepared for the game due to a six-hour delay at the airport after their victory over the Knicks on Thursday night.
“Last night was brutal – it was the worst circumstance I have ever experienced in the NBA,” said Warriors coach Steve Kerr.
Milwaukee star Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 46 points and grabbed 16 rebounds to lead the Bucks to a 113-97 victory over the Bulls in Chicago.
Antetokounmpo also dished out six assists and made two three-pointers to put in an impressive performance.
The 76ers win while waiting for Embiid
In Philadelphia, Tobias Harris scored 31 points and grabbed 12 rebounds, and Tyree Maxey added 33 points to propel the 76ers to a 121-114 victory over the Hornets.
The 76ers, 5th in the East, are trying to maintain their qualifying position for the play-offs while hoping for the return of last season’s MVP, Joel Embiid, who had surgery on his left knee in early February and who has just announced that he intended to return this season.
Westbrook fractured left hand
The LA Clippers won against the Washington Wizards 140-115, reassuring themselves after a bad series and notably a defeat in the derby against the Lakers.
But they especially lost their leader Russell Westbrook, who suffers from a broken left hand. The duration of his absence is still undetermined.
