NBA, Paul Banchero is stopped at the most beautiful moment
Milwaukee’s unexpected defeat, Denver in playoffs
Orlando goes one step closer to getting Phoenix into trouble. Banchero, scorer of 18 points, is fouled by Okogie on the key possession of the match. The Suns thus prevail 116-113 to the disappointment of the Italian-American.
Milwaukee chews bitterly. Already qualified for the post season, the Bucks are beaten, surprisingly, by Indiana (139-123, 25 points by Antetokounmpo). Denver smiles, which, after four losses in a row, wins with Detroit (119-100, 30 points, 10 rebounds and nine assists for a super Jokic) and mathematically wins a pass to the playoffs. Brooklyn lost to Sacramento (101-96) while OKC surrendered to Toronto (128-111).
