* NBA All-Star Game fan vote”>Denver Nuggets VS Portland Trail Blazers Betting Tip 14.01.22″>Facundo Campazzo had a brilliant performance in Denver’s win
It will be a night that Facundo Campazzo you will surely not forget. The Argentine base was absolutely decisive in the resounding victory of the Denver Nuggets 140-108 sobre Portland Trail Blazers. At Ball Arena, the Wizard signed one of his most outstanding days since he landed in the NBA with a double-double for the third time in his entire stay in the most important league in the world.
Facu completed a form with 18 points, 12 assists and 4 steals in 27 minutes to close the duel as the maximum assist of the evening and being a reflection of the success that the team of Michale Malon had in the hoop with the 21 points from Will Barton, 20 from Nikola Jokic and 19 from Jeff Green.
The brand new captain of the Argentine team had already flaunted double digits this season when he added 22 points, 12 assists, 5 steals, 4 rebounds and 2 blocks in 34 minutes against the Houston Rockets in a duel that took place on January 2. To get another “double-double” we must go back to April 2021 with an outstanding performance against New Orleans Pelicans (19 points and 10 assists in 36 minutes).
Although their numbers had a positive impact on this day against Portland, there was an action that quickly went viral as a result of the ingenuity that Campazzo used. At the end of the first quarter, when his team was already winning by a difference of more than 10 points, easily stole the ball from six foot giant CJ Elleby and then he got off me Trendon Watford’s brand with a majestic spout. He ran from coast to coast and gave the ball to Bones Hyland, who was standing on the perimeter in absolute solitude and with time to shoot, but missed a shot of three.
“Don’t make them like that Facu,” the Nuggets account wrote to share the moment. “This view is even better,” he warned in another post after showing a new approach in slow motion where the play was perfectly seen.
The 30-year-old was close to matching his best stats in the NBA considering that his maximum points so far are the 22 that the hizo has Houston Rockets in this season and his best assistive figure is the 13 he also achieved against the Rockets but in April of last year during his first year in the North American league.
The Nuggets are in the sixth in the Western Conference with 21 wins and 19 losses in a table led by Phoenix Suns (31-9), Golden State Warriors (30-11) and Memphis Grizzlies (30-14). Currently, Denver is behind the Los Angeles Lakers (21-21) and the Los Angeles Clippers (21-22), taking into account that Portland is tenth (16-25) with a team punished by injuries after confirming that the base Damian Lillard had to undergo a surgery to overcome an injury that caused abdominal pain.
The agenda for those led by Malone will continue this Saturday from 11pm (Argentina time) against the Lakers at home and will immediately follow the Sunday against Utah Jazz also in Denver from 22 (Argentine time). Then there will be a few days off until they resume activity on Thursday 20 of this month against the Clippers.
