Houston – LA Clippers : 98-99

The Rockets may have regrets. In front of 13 points in the first half, then still owner of a 9-point lead at the start of the last quarter, after a basket from Kenyon Martin Jr, Houston sank at the worst of times.

Los Angeles then passes a 13-0 to regain control. For three minutes, the troops of Stephen Silas are voiceless. Finally, they score a 5-0 to breathe. The two formations exchange baskets, but Reggie Jackson will be more decisive than the Texans. In addition, a block from Ivica Zubac, first whistled as a foul but “challenged” by the Clippers, will prevent the Rockets from returning. Ninth straight loss for Houston.

Portland – Denver : 92-124

Nikola Jokic did not play the last 14 minutes of the match, which is to say if the evening was quiet for the 2021 MVP and his gang. The Nuggets were playing for the second time in two days and weren’t always brilliant, but against a weak Portland team, it went smoothly.

Denver sped up 18-4 early in the second quarter to take a more than 20-point lead and the Blazers were never a threat in that game again. The bench took advantage of this health walk to show off (76 points), including 20 points and 10 rebounds from JaMychal Green or 19 points and 8 rebounds from DeMarcus Cousins.
