NBA: Victor Wembanyama sensational, Suns annihilated. Paul Banchero sinks the Jazz
NBA, the results of the night
Four NBA night games between Thursday and Friday. Among them, Victor Wembanyama’s resounding night cannot but make headlines: the Frenchman of the San Antonio Spurs, first choice at the last Draft and considered by many a predestined, annihilates the Phoenix Suns’ resistance with 38 points and 10 rebounds, which erase on the other side the near-triple-double in front of the home crowd by Devin Booker, author of 31 points, 13 assists and 9 rebounds and contribute to the neroargento’s third win of the season. 132-121 the final score.
Third game won out of the five played also for the Orlando Magic, dragged by Paolo Banchero: 30 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists for the Duke product, best scorer in the 115-113 with which the Florida franchise folds the Utah Jazz on the latter’s parquet (only 7 minutes for Simone Fontecchio, with no points on the scoreboard).
Wide home win for the Philadelphia 76ers, who defeat the Toronto Raptors 114-99 thanks mainly to a 28-point, 13-rebound, and 7-assist Joel Embiid.
Closing the review of the contests played in the night is the fourth success in five games of the New Orleans Pelicans, who with a 33-point CJ McCollum overcome the Detroit Pistons 125-116.
