# WHAT TO REMEMBER FROM THE NIGHT

• The Pistons and Spurs needed two extensions to decide. A very pleasant game between two teams that are less so this season, that’s not bad.
• Kevin Durant’s new buddies did the job in Indiana, thanks Deandre Ayton for the work.
• Joel Embiid offered the scalp of the Knicks by registering 35 points. Sixers win, but that has become classic in Philadelphia.
• Jayson Tatum is too strong: 41 points once morest the Hornets, even if the latter had not necessarily come to Boston to win.
• The Raptors pooped on themselves once morest the Jazz.
• Tyler Herro finally released the big game: 31 points to allow the Heat to smoke the Rockets. Victory at the buzzer, on an alley oop from Gabe Vincent for Jimmy Butler!
• The Grizzlies have made short work of the Wolves: we finally have the answer to the Wolf versus Bear debate.
• Evan Mobley sent 28 points and 13 rebounds once morest the Pelicans, a small win as a bonus. Brandon Ingram struggled well – 25 points – but it wasn’t enough.
• Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Damian Lillard fought a crazy duel: 44 points for the first, 38 for the other. Total relief.
• Kyrie Irving continues well: 25 points and 10 rebounds in the victory of the Mavericks at the Kings. Revenge tonight, that’s good!
• Giannis Antetokounmpo wandered once morest the Clippers: 35 points, a classic day at work what.
• Gary Payton II failed his medical with the Warriors due to a muscle problem. The transfer is questioned.

Glendale (USA), 10 Feb. The Milwaukee Bucks added their tenth win in a row this Friday once morest the Los Angeles Clippers while Jimmy Butler saved the Miami Heat “in extremis” with an “alley-oop” at the buzzer and the Spanish Santi Aldama continued his great season with the Memphis Grizzlies.

CLIPPERS 106 – BUCKS 119

The tenth straight win for these fantastic Bucks came once morest the Clippers and just one day following knocking out the Lakers.

Giannis Antetokounmpo (35 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists) was once once more the best for the Bucks, while for the Angelenos, without Kawhi Leonard, the top scorer was Brandon Boston Jr. (20 points).

HEAT 97 – ROCKETS 95

An “alley-oop” at the last moment by Butler saved a very modest game for the Heat, who had their best man in Tyler Herro (31 points, 9 rebounds and 8 assists).

Jabari Smith Jr. (22 points and 8 rebounds) was the best for Houston and the Spanish Usman Garuba had 2 points and 4 rebounds for the Rockets.

GRIZZLIES 128 – TIMBERWOLVES 107

With 18 points (6 of 8 shooting) and 4 rebounds, Spanish Santi Aldama was once once more a key man for the Grizzlies, who beat Minnesota led by Ja Morant (32 points, 9 rebounds and 9 assists).

Jaylen Nowell (21 points) stood out in a Wolves team that suffered the powerful 58.3% shooting from the field by Memphis.

PELICANS 107 – CAVALIERS 118

Donovan Mitchell (30 points) led Cleveland’s win once morest the Pelicans, who had 25 points and 8 assists from Brandon Ingram.

The Spaniards Ricky Rubio and Willy Hernangómez did not play.

CELTICS 127 – HORNETS 116

Jayson Tatum scored 41 points and Derrick White replaced Jaylen Brown (low with a broken jaw) with 33 points as the Celtics, the first team this season to reach 40 wins, easily beat the Hornets.

LaMelo Ball touched the triple-double in Charlotte (24 points, 9 rebounds and 10 assists).

KINGS 114 – MAVERICKS 122

Still without the injured Luka Doncic, the Mavericks devastated the Kings, a direct rival of the Texans in the West, in a game with 25 points and 10 rebounds from Kyrie Irving and in which seven of the ten players used by Dallas added more of 10 points.

De’Aaron Fox’s 33 points and 6 rebounds were useless in Sacramento

RAPTORS 116 – JAZZ 122

The Raptors only needed the last six minutes of their game once morest the Jazz to throw away a game they were leading by 13 points with just six minutes left.

Pascal Siakam (35 points and 6 rebounds) stood out in Toronto while the Spanish Juancho Hernangómez had no minutes.

Lauri Markkanen and Walker Kessler each had 23 points at Utah.

SIXERS 119 – KNICKS 108

The Sixers got their act together in the fourth quarter (27-15) to overcome the Knicks with 35 points, 11 rebounds and 6 assists from Joel Embiid.

Jalen Brunson and Julius Randle added 30 points apiece for a New York team that blew a 13-point lead in the third quarter.

PISTONS 138 – SPURS 131

Neither once morest the Pistons, penultimate in the East, nor with two overtimes in between might the Spurs return to the path of victory, which has already accumulated eleven defeats in a row.

Devonte’ Graham made his San Antonio debut with 31 points and Bojan Bogdanovic, who ultimately didn’t come out on the transfer market following being one of the most mentioned men, scored 32 in Detroit.

PACERS 104 – SUNS 117

Six Suns players, led by Deandre Ayton (22 points and 11 rebounds), topped 10 points in Phoenix’s road win once morest the Pacers.

Bennedict Mathurin (22 points) excelled in Indiana, where Chris Duarte had 7 points, 6 rebounds and an assist.

BLAZERS 129 – THUNDER 138

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander gave a recital (44 points and 7 assists) for the Thunder to win Portland with a 12 of 24 triple.

Damian Lillard had 38 points (with 6 triples) and 9 assists for the Blazers.

The Thunder went to Oregon tonight to challenge the Blazers of a boiling Damian Lillard. The duel between Dame and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander lived up to expectations, as the two zinzins went head-to-head at high level. At the end ? It’s the OKC star who has the last word: 44 points at 81% shooting and victory for the Thunder!

Regalade.

There is no other word to describe the basketball game that took place last night in Portland. Which part ! A tight match from start to finish, until the last two minutes. Two main actors allowed the Moda Center spectators to take full advantage of it: Damian Lillard and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. The two leaders were expected for a match within the match, they did not disappoint: exchange of shots each more complicated than the other during the entire meeting.

Shai will however have been the one who will do the best. He finished with 44 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists at… 81% shooting. Cleanliness that would freak Monsieur Propre himself. He equals his career points record here, and breaks the 40 pawn mark for the second time in four games. Opposite, Damian Lillard stopped at 38 points and 9 assists. Definitely the game of the night, as the two boys agreed to give us a superb show.

If the two bosses have assumed their status, the difference is made on the contributions of the bench. The Éclairs were able to count on 52 points from the substitute team. A real pleasure to know that the second unit does the job while the incumbents are resting. This was especially noticeable in the final minutes, where Luguentz Dort brought the baskets to take the decisive gap. OKC ends its road trip with a second consecutive victory and remains more than ever in the race for qualification for the Playin tournament.
