On the eve of the end of the regular season, the NBA split into two distinct groups. On the one hand the short-term ambitious teams, whose goal is therefore to win games, we agree, and on the other a few franchises whose ambitions are clearly turned towards the 2023 Draft, all the more so in this year which should crown Victor Wembanyama with the status of first pick.
The results of the night
- Jazz – Nuggets : 118-114 (stats)
- Spurs – Wolves : 131-151 (stats)
- Clippers – Blazers : 136-125 (stats)
Le Tankathon
Good deal of the night – Blazers, Spurs: with a view to scratching a few defeats before the end of the season to raise their potential ranking during the Draft, the Blazers lost in Los Angeles, not without showing a few nice little things. The Spurs ate 150 against the Wolves, nothing else to add eh.
Bad operation of the night – Jazz: By winning at home against the Nuggets in playoff prep mode, the Mormons let slip a loss that puts them within a potential victory tomorrow night of a tie with the Mavericks. Be careful not to miss the 1.5% chance of hitting the first choice on a success on the penultimate day.
