The Golden State Warriors won a prestigious success (122-109) over the defending champions, the Milwaukee Bucks, who remained on a series of six victories, thanks in particular to 38 points from the returning Klay Thompson this Saturday in the NBA.
The 32-year-old back had his best game since his return to the courts in January, after two and a half years of absence due to repeated injuries (knee, Achilles tendon), scoring 15 baskets out of 24 attempts, including 8 of 14 three-pointers. He also took six rebounds and delivered five assists in 34 minutes to compensate for the bad evening of his sidekick Stephen Curry (8 points, 8 assists). Giannis Antotekounmpo has, as usual, yet not disappointed with 31 points and 8 rebounds.

Miami rate the car
The leader of the Eastern Conference, Miami, did not take advantage of this misstep of the Bucks since he lost at home against Minnesota (113-104). Jimmy Butler, hit in the toe, did not play and Tyler Herro (30 units) gave his best. Chicago, on the other hand, did not flinch against Cleveland (101-91), despite the fine statistical line of young Darius Garland (27 pts, 7 rebounds, 7 assists).
Amazing duel at high altitude in Salt Lake City, where Utah (without Rudy Gobert) beat Sacramento (134-125). The scorers did not give the dog their share, with 41 points for Fox and 45 for Clarkson. The Jazz back had the best performance of the night, just ahead of Josh Hart, who planted 44 points with Portland in the Blazers’ victory over the Wizards (127-118).
