NBA night results
.
There were nine contests played on NBA night. Boston celebrated Kristaps Porzingis’ return to the court in the best way possible, overwhelming the Los Angeles Clippers at TD Garden. Clear success also for New York, which sends as many as seven players into double figures and folds Denver.
In the East, Orlando’s magical moment continues as it overturns Charlotte, centering its ninth win in the last ten games. The usual Franz Wagner, who put up 21, including 13 in the decisive quarter, was on top. Also celebrating is Memphis, which beats Portland thanks to a double-double of 22 points and 11 assists by the returning Ja Morant.
In the West, it was all easy for OKC, which settled the Sacramento file thanks to a superlative second half. Finally, a surprise knockout for Golden State, which was pulled back from +18 and was overtaken by Brooklyn in the fourth quarter, thanks to a 31-point, 7-assist Dennis Schroder.
