The shock of the night: Denver – Boston
Third victory in a row for Boston, who struck a blow by winning by twenty points at one of the other teams in the form of the League, Denver. The Celtics won 104-124 by leading almost from start to finish, carried by a great Jayson Tatum, who finished with 30 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists. His friend Jaylen Brown was not left out, also with 30 points and 6 rebounds. Opposite, Nikola Jokic, who missed 14 shots in the first half, had to “settle” for 23 points (with an unusual 8 of 23 on shots), 8 rebounds and 4 assists. Like the Serb, the Nuggets missed their first half (43-68, mt), so Mike Malone decided to put his holders on the bench to start the second. A second won 61-56, but the case had long been heard.
