ROMA (ITALPRESS) – A wild Kawhi Leonard takes the scene in the Nba night. The 34-year-old ala scores 45 points in the great success of the Los Angeles Clippers for 153-128 against the Minnesota Timberwolves, which is the third consecutive win and the sixth in seven California franchise games. Leonard almost makes the perfect race: 15 pitches from the field made on 20, 6 out of 9 arched ones with 9 free throws on 10 a basket.
If you add a 22-point Bennedict Mathurin and a 21-point Darius Garland (with five triples) you will see the margin of 25 despite on the other side there is a 36-point Anthony Edwards.
Jamal Murray’s 30 points are enough and above all the 25th double triple of the season (the 187th of the career) of Nikola Jokic (16 points, 13 assists and 12 rebounds) to allow the Denver Nuggets to beat the Houston Rockets 129-93.
They smile at the Orlando Magic that beat 128-122 the Cleveland Cavaliers and win the fifth consecutive victory. Decisivi Desmond Bane (35 points), Paolo Banchero (25 points and 8 rebounds) and Tristan Da Silva (23 points, 9 of which in the last quarter). Fourth false step in the last seven for the Cavs, despite a 30-point and 8-assisted James Harden and a 25-point Donovan Mitchell.
It also happened for the New York Knicks in the Utah Jazz house for 117-134. The guest reassembly bears the signature of Jalen Brunson (28 points) and Jordan Clarkson (27), while on the other hand the best are Brice Sensabaugh with 29 points and Ace Bailey with 21 points.
Vittories also for Pelicans and Hornets. New Orleans surpasses Toronto Raptors for 122-111 with a 28-point Trey Murphy III. Charlotte wins against the Sacramento Kings for 109-117 with four players with 20 or more points: LaMelo Ball puts 30 referees, four more than Miles Bridges and six more than the rookie Kon Knueppel, with Brandon Miller closing at 20. The hosts were not enough to frame DeMar DeRozan’s night, making 39 points and passing Tim Duncan in the eighteenth place of the All-time markers with 26.505 points.
