Shai Gilgeous-Alexander extends to 117 the series of games with more than twenty points, finding 24, but it is not enough for the Thunder to party among the friendly walls. The first chaser also falls.
The San Antonio Spurs in the house lose 95-104 against the New Orleans Pelicans, dragged by the Saddiq Bey-Zion Williamson duo, authors of 24 points and 10 rebounds per head, in a complicated shooting night for Victor Wembanyama (double of 16 points with 6/16 from the field and 16 rebounds). He also moved to Miami, which moved to Phoenix with a score of 111-102. At the Suns – orphans of Devin Booker (a week stop for an ankle injury for him) – the 26 points of Dillon Brooks are not enough, while the Heat relies on the 22 points of Bam Adebayo and the 20 out of the bench of Jaime Jaquez Jr. Fifteen minutes in the field for Simone Fontecchio who realizes a free and contributes to the victory with five rebounds and three assists.
Among the external victories of the night there is also that of the Golden State Warriors, which have the best of the Minnesota Timberwolves for 111-85 in the race originally scheduled on Saturday and postponed for “security” reasons after the death of Alex Pretti, the 37-year-old nurse killed in Minneapolis by some Ice agents. Steph Curry (26 points and 7 assists) and Moses Moody (19 points and 8 rebounds) are the guest draggers, while the 32 points and 11 rebounds of Anthony Edwards are not enough for the Timberwolves.
