NBA: Golden State strikes a blow, LA Lakers and Milwaukee fall
Golden State’s record è still under 50% win rate
Lots of contests on NBA night. Grappling with a moment of crisis, Golden State strikes a blow. The Warriors manage to get the better of the challenge with the LA Clippers: 120-114 the final. Excellent performance by Curry, who finished with 26 points. Good Thompson (22 points). For the Warriors this is the ninth win of the season, compared to 10 losses. A success, that of the Warriors, which could therefore relaunch them.
Chicago’s big hit, which, without stars LaVine and DeRozan, imposes itself on Milwaukee after an overtime (120-113 the final). Strong performance by Vucevic who put up 29 points (with also 10 rebounds captured). In the Bucks’ house, Antetokounmpo’s 26 points and 14 rebounds and Lillard’s 18 points and 13 assists were not enough.
LA Lakers fall, beaten decisively by OKC (133-110 the final). Decisive was the second quarter won by the Thunder 42-23. Not in great relief James: 21 points and 12 rebounds. Defeat also for Utah, overcome by Minnesota (101-90). L’azzurro Fontecchio starts again (fourth in a row in the starting five) and closes the game with 16 points (6/12 shooting).
