ROMA (ITALPRESS) – With a few thrills more than expected, San Antonio wins in the house of New Orleans and rises immediately after the defeat a few days ago against Cleveland. Coming in the fly for the Spurs, which seem to have put in safe the victory after the first time, closed with twenty points advantage on 57-77. But with a third quarter of 45-23 partial, the hosts reopened the game, forcing the guests to save themselves in the last quarter with the decisive baskets of Dylan Harper, author of 22 points from the bench with 63% from the field, for the 132-135 final. But taking the scene is the 20-year-old Derik Queen, who, as a rookie, finds his first double trip in Nba with 33 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists. The 2004 class is only the fifth in history to sign a triple double in his debut year, equating stars like Luka Doncic, LeBron James, Victor Wembanyama and De’Aaron Fox.
External victory and, even in this case, very tight, for Phoenix in direct confrontation with Minnesota. The Suns take home a game conducted in the score for wide stretches, apart from the third quarter final, winning for 105-108 thanks to the solid performance of Mark Williams (22 points with 78% from the field) and Collin Gillespie, imprecise to the shooting (6/15), but able to score three triples.
On the other hand, a bit of regret for the Timberwolves, that throw to the ortics a performance of 40 points and 9 rebounds of Anthony Edwards and, above all, you see a strip of five consecutive victories.
To complete the program of the Italian night is the match between two teams that navigate in the backgrounds of the two Conferences, that is Indiana to the East and Sacramento to the West. Fourth victory in the last six games for the Pacers, which stretch in the first half but are then resumed in the third quarter by the Kings, before giving again the decisive tear in the last quarter for the 116-105 final. The more than twenty points per head for Andrew Nembhard (28 with 12 assists), Bennedict Mathurin (25) and Pascal Siakam (23) make the triple double number 207 vana in career of Russell Westbrook, which closes with 24 points, 12 rebounds and 14 assists.
