Stellar performance by Gilgeous-Alexander: 40 points in less than 30 minutes

The most anticipated contest on NBA night was between OKC and Cleveland, i.e., the franchises with the best records in the entire league. The victory è went to the Thunder (134-114) who also reached a resounding +42. Of note was the stellar performance of Gilgeous-Alexander: 40 points in less than 30 minutes (best ever performance in Thunder history).

Thanks to this win, OKC now has the same record as the Cavs: 34 won and six lost. "They have asserted themselves at every level. This è is their identity. They have shown who they are. È it was an avalanche and we had no way to stop it", the words of Atkinson, Cleveland coach, reported by ESPN.

Phoenix’s good moment continues as it overcomes Washington (130-123) and picks up its fifth win in the last seven contests. Excellent performance by Booker who scores 37 points. Bad defeat for Denver that surrenders to Indiana (111-100 the final). Fontecchio did not affect who, in 18' on the court, scored only five points (2/5 shooting).

Nice win for Sacramento, which gets the better of the challenge with Houston (132-127). DeRozan has a great game with 33 points in the game. Victory also for the LA Clippers: 118-89 against Portland. Powell (23 points) shines.
