ROMA (ITALPRESS) – The Cavs do not stop and send the Lakers, in what could be the last return of LeBron James to Cleveland as a player. Five consecutive Cavs victories, which overwhelm the Los Angeles team with a net 129-99. Donovan Mitchell, with his 25 points, is one of the protagonists of a game simply dominated by Cleveland, supported by the 20 points of Jaylon Tyson and from the 19 from the bench of De’Andre Hunter. For the Lakers, however, the only one to save is Luka Doncic with 29 points to the active, while the protagonist of LeBron evening, to which a video-tributed before the meeting, stops at 11 with 30% from the field.
It was, then, a great derby night. Starting with Florida, in which Miami lost 124-133 against Orlando, returning to win after four defeats in a row. At the Heat is not enough the best Simone Fontecchio of the season, author of 23 points from the bench with the 7/11 from the field, of which six triples, and not even the double double of Bam Adebayo (21 points and 12 rebounds). It is Paolo Banchero’s (31 points and 12 rebounds), in fact, to launch the Magic, which exploit the extension in the third quarter (partial of 20-40).
Air de derby also in Texas, where the Spurs turn on in the last two quarters to win in the game for 99-111 against the Rockets. To make the difference is the usual Victor Wembanyama, dragman of San Antonio with 28 points and 16 rebounds, but also the 38 points arrived from the bench. In Houston, instead, the 25 points of Amen Thompson and the 24 points of Kevin Durant are not enough, since the final lacks offensive incisivity to stretch the streak of consecutive victories, which stops at two.
