For the yellowviola it is the ninth victory in the last 10 competitions
.
The good momentum of the LA Lakers continues as they also got rid of Cleveland (116-97), taking their ninth win in their last 10 games played. Thanks to this success, the yellowviola rise to eighth place in the West. Great contribution of James and Davis, authors of 24 points and 22 points, respectively. On the other side, Garland’s usual excellent performance was not enough: 26 points scored.
Philadelphia also smiles, which, since the return of Embiid, knows only how to win. The 76ers also regulate the Grizzlies (116-96). It was the third win in a row with its All Star on the court. Embiid finished with 30 points and 12 assists in just 23' on the court. Brooklyn also did well, winning the match with Detroit (113-103 the final). Thomas shines, putting up an impressive 32 points (10/11 from the lunette).
Wide win for Denver as well. The defending NBA champions easily disposed of Atlanta: 142-110 the final. After seven games of absence due to injury, Murray returned, scoring 21 points in 16'. Of course, the difference is made by Jokic who, without taking the court in the fourth period, signs his 25° triple-double of the season with 19 points, 14 rebounds and 11 assists. Denver remains in the lead in the West, ahead of Minnesota.
