NEW YORK (UNITED STATES) (ITALPRESS) – Detroit knocked out on the Italian night of the NBA regular-season. In front of more than 18,000 spectators at the Chase Center in San Francisco, the Nuggets surrendered 115-110 to the Golden State Warriors, dragged by the 32 points of the inexhaustible Curry, who thus crosses the 25,000 career points mark.
For the Michigan franchise, 31 points from Cunningham and immaculate box for Simone Fontecchio: the 29-year-old forward from Pescara accumulates ten minutes of usage and only two rebounds. A night to forget for the Los Angeles Lakers: interrupting the Californians’ streak of positive results at eight were the defending champions Boston Celtics, who won the challenge 111-101 with 40 points from an inexcusable Tatum, a top-scorer, and 31 from Brown; among the guests, Doncic scored 34, but the fears were all for LeBron James, who left in the final due to a groin strain that could keep him off the court for several weeks.
Home success for the Charlotte Hornets, who fold the Brooklyn Nets 105-102 with 26 points from Bridges and 19 from Smith (but in the ‘Big Applè quintet Russell scores 28). Houston has no trouble beating the New Orleans Pelicans on friendly turf: the Rockets ramped up to 146-117 at the final buzzer with 27 points from Brooks and 20 apiece from Holiday and Sengun.
Atlanta and Washington win instead in a sprint: the Hawks fold the Indiana Pacers 120-118 with 36 points from Young’s ‘hot hands,’ the Wizards violate the Toronto Raptors 118-117 with 34 points from Poole, the most prolific player of the match. And the Chicago Bulls and Orlando Magic also party on the road, imposing themselves respectively on the Miami Heat (114-109 with 26 points by Giddey) and the Milwaukee Bucks (111-109 with 29 points by Banchero and despite 37 by the ‘usual’ Antetokounmpo).
