Bad evening for the 76ers big names: 20 points for Joel Embiid and 14 for Tyrese Maxey. Denver smiles, defeating Dallas 118-109. Jamal Murray starred in Texas with 33 points and 5 rebounds. Aaron Gordon (22 points) and Peyton Watson (18 points) also did well.

Brandon Ingram and Scottie Barnes combined for 56 points (30+26), to which are added the decisive 21+11 assists from Gradey Dick coming off the bench; 26 points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists for Pascal Siakam, but it’s not enough for the Pacers to continue their streak of three consecutive victories.
New York defeated in Sacramento: 112-101 for the Kings, with the Knicks surrendering to the DeRozan-LaVine duo (27 points and 25 points) and the 20 points of the former Achiuwa and losing Brunson in the first quarter to a sprained right ankle. The Los Angeles Clippers make no mistake and beat Washington 119-105. Kawhi Leonard’s excellent moment continues, finishing with 33 points in 30 minutes on the court. Chicago prevails over Utah at home: 128-126 for the Bulls, who win thanks to Nikola Vucevic’s basket (35 points + 7 rebounds) four seconds before the siren. Nothing to do for the Jazz, despite Brice Sensabugh’s 43 points and Keyonte George’s 25. New Orleans beats Brooklyn 116-113. Trey Murphy’s 34 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists and Zion Williamson’s 25 points give the Pelicans their second success in the last four.
