Doncic is on course for a record. Strong Schröder helps the world champion brothers
March 6, 2024, 7:14 a.m
The Brooklyn Nets achieved a surprise success in the NBA – and the Orlando Magic took advantage of it: The German world champions celebrated a successful evening in the most important basketball league in the world.
World champion captain Dennis Schröder led the Brooklyn Nets to a surprising home win against the Philadelphia 76ers in the NBA. The German basketball national player scored a good 20 points in a score of 112:107 and had 8 assists, more than any other professional in the game. It was the 26th defeat of the season for the 76ers, who had to do without All-Star Tyrese Maxey for a short time due to a concussion in addition to Joel Embiid, who had knee surgery.
The team enabled the Orlando Magic around world champions Moritz Wagner and Franz Wagner to draw level in the Eastern Conference table. The Magic won 101:89 at the Charlotte Hornets. Paolo Banchero was the best scorer of the game with 22 points. Moritz Wagner scored 11 points, his brother scored 8 points and struggled with three-pointers – none of his five attempts went in.
The New York Knicks, however, were unable to take advantage of the 76ers defeat. Isaiah Hartenstein’s team lost 100:116 to the Atlanta Hawks. They are still in fourth place in the Eastern Conference behind the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Cavs won 105-104 against league leaders Boston Celtics. This ended a series of eleven wins for Boston.
Doncic gala does not bring victory
Maximilian Kleber remained without points in the Dallas Mavericks’ next defeat. Due to the 120:137 at home against the Indiana Pacers, the Texans have now lost three games in a row and are increasingly in danger of losing a place in the top six in the Western Conference and thus a direct entry into the playoffs.
Once again, the Mavericks’ superstar Luka Doncic stood out, scoring his fourth triple-double in a row with at least 30 points with 39 points, 11 assists and 10 rebounds. In NBA history, only Russell Westbrook (5) achieved this feat more often in three statistical categories. But that wasn’t enough for Dallas to win.
