ROMA (ITALPRESS) – Second place in the west with the push of its big ones. The Lakers find the fourth consecutive victory by defeating Utah Jazz at home with a score of 108-106. Double for Luka Doncic (33 points and 11 rebounds) and Austin Reaves (22 and 10), with LeBron James pushing up to 17 points. It is not enough for Jazz to try Keyonte George, who makes 27 points and 8 assists, but wastes the triple overtaking in the final. The Oklahoma City Thunder remain on the head, closing on 122-95 after reaching +38 against the Portland Trail Blazers. Highlights the usual Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, which points to 37 points. It’s 20 of Ajay Mitchell’s recording a perfect 8/8 at the shooting. Guests, without Jrue Holiday and Shaedon Sharpe, are not enough for the 21 of Jerami Grant. They have reasons to smile also the Phoenix Suns batting 111-102 San Antonio Spurs, still orphans of Wembanyama, and climb to sixth place in the standings. Dillon Brooks’ contribution (25 points) and Devin Booker (24), as well as Jordan Goodwin’s (15+10 rebounds) and Mark Williams (14+11). In the East, the Toronto Raptors’ positive march continues to collect the seventh victory in a row, this time at the expense of Brooklyn (119-109). Nets don’t need three players above 20 points (Tyrese Martin with 26, Michael Porter Jr. 25, and Noah Clowney 22).
Cleveland, Miami, and Atlanta also win in high floors. The Cavs beat the Los Angeles Clippers with a score of 120-105; while the Heat of Fontecchio (6 points for him) imposes 127-117 on the Philadelphia 76ers. The Hawks also smiled at the Hornets opposition (113-110). Proof of continuity for the Boston Celtics, then, that find victory after the false step against the Nets: the Orlando Magic, defeated with a score of 138-129 and overwhelmed by a 35-point Jaylen Brown.
