Embiid knocks out LA Clippers
Lots of excitement on NBA night. Another MVP performance by Jokic who drags Denver to success over Portland (122-113). Jokic closed with yet another triple-double of his crazy season: 36 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists. On the other side, Lillard’s 44 points were not enough. For the Nuggets this is the 14th straight home win (31-13 record).
In the other games, Embiid’s super performance in Philadelphia’s win over the LA Clippers (120-110). The 76ers all-star finished with 41 points on the bench. Without its aces Durant and Irving, Brooklyn comes out defeated in the match with San Antonio (106-98). Nice success of Milwaukee in the challenge with Toronto (130-122, 37 points by Holiday).
