There was no shortage of emotions and surprises in the last NBA night where several top teams found themselves having to give way to the opponents of the day.
Among these certainly stand out the Phoenix Suns by Devin Booker (30 points for him in the night) who, without Chris Paul (out due to a hand injury), in the final were forced to raise the white flag 118-114 against Utah Jazz. These, thanks to a 26-point Donovan Mitchell, have thus inflicted the second consecutive knockout to the Arizona franchise which in any case remains firmly in command of the Western Conference.
In fact, the behind do not take advantage of it Golden State Warriors who, despite a 27-point Curry, get 19 points ahead of Doncic’s Mavs in the fourth period (34 points), eventually being defeated 107-101.
Staying to the West, i Nuggets di Jokic (8 points, 18 rebounds and 11 assists) scramble the Blazers 124-92, a score similar to the one recorded by Pelicans (victorious 123-95) on Lakersknocked out for the ninth time in the last twelve releases.
In the East, on the other hand, the final point to point between Hornets e Pistons rewards the latter thanks to Kelly Olynik’s buzzer beater, while 76ers (37 points, 9 rebounds and 4 blocks for Embiid) e Pacers they conquer two clear-cut affirmations, respectively imposing themselves against Knicks (typed 125-109) e Celtics (exceeded 128-107).
