Indiana’s revenge for honor
Indiana and Oklahoma City met for the first time since the NBA finals won by the Thunder. And even if there is obviously not the same flavor, the Pacers took their revenge (117-114). All this despite the absence of Tyrese Haliburton, injured during game 7 and absent for the season. Indiana had a lead of up to 17 points in the first half and another 11 with 5 minutes remaining. Despite a great performance from Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (47 points), the Thunder fell 3 points behind the Pacers, led by Andrew Nembhard (27) and Jarace Walker (26). Hit in the hip against Milwaukee, Ajay Mitchell was not available for this meeting.
No chance for the Blazers and Camara, despite his address
Portland and Toumani Camara came across stronger than them last night. The Toronto Raptors took the match in hand from the start (110-98) and then controlled the match. On the field, Toumani Camara was once again valuable and skillful: 16 points (5/12 including 4/8 at 3pts), 6 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 interception and 1 block. However, insufficient to threaten the Raptors with a three-headed monster: Sandro Mamukelashvili (22 points), Brandon Ingram (20) and Immanuel Quickley (20).
The Nuggets resist the Bucks, who lose Giannis
Deprived of many important elements (Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray, Jonas Valanciunas, Christian Braun, etc.), the Nuggets still managed to resist the return of the Bucks. From 86-63 with 10 minutes left, the Bucks came back to 99-97 with 29 seconds left in the match and 101-100 with 5 seconds left! Without success for Milwaukee which returns to Wisconsin with a 5e defeat in 6 games… and especially Giannis Antetokounmpo, injured in the calf. The Greek giant, cited in numerous transfer rumors, should be absent for 4 to 6 weeks!
