Cavaliers Loss: Gobert’s Double-Double Not Enough

The match: Giddey revives the Bulls and crushes the Cavaliers

Chicago is finally getting some fresh air. After 8 defeats in the last 9 matches, the Bulls won a great victory by beating the Cavaliers (127-111). Josh Giddey led the proceedings by scoring 23 points but above all by adding 11 rebounds and 11 assists. The Australian was the master of a flamboyant attack where 7 players reached or crossed the 10 point mark. Coby White and Nikola Vucevic scored 25 and 23 units respectively.

On the other hand, this new defeat is problematic for Cleveland. This is the seventh in ten matches. The Cavaliers are unable to string together good results. So, certainly, they have often been without a major player or two since the start of the season. But the best teams are supposed to be able to keep up. Especially since the Ohio franchise can still count on Donovan Mitchell, author of 32 points last night. Cleveland has already lost its 13th game this season, which didn’t happen until March last year.

The player: Jackson Jr carries the Grizzlies against the Timberwolves

Memphis is recovering well after a complicated start to the season. The Tennessee franchise almost has a balanced record after its victory against Minnesota on Wednesday evening (110-116). A match marked by 28 points from Jaren Jackson Jr, also author of 12 rebounds. Jock Landale supported him well by scoring 20 (4 winning baskets) coming off the bench.

The Grizzlies pivots shone and yet they were opposed to a quality Rudy Gobert. The Frenchman contributed in many areas of the game by posting 16 points, 16 rebounds and 4 blocks. Without success for the Timberwolves, who are still playing without Anthony Edwards.
