Nba: Gallinari is the first blue to overcome 10 thousand points

Danilo Gallinari is the first Italian player to cross the 10 thousand points mark in the NBA.

The blue record came last night, during the match between Dallas and Atlanta.

Gallinari's team was beaten 118-117 at the end of a hard-fought match, which also led to a large part in the lead.

And the Lodi champion himself had the ball in his hand to overturn the result a few seconds from the end, without succeeding.

But with his 11 personal points, the Hawks player has reached the highly symbolic threshold of 10 thousand career points in the great basketball tournament, a result never achieved so far by other Azzurri.

    Tonight's shift has reserved many emotions.

For example, to score 47 points, miss the overtaking basket on the siren and go home defeated 125-124: this is what happened to the Greek champion Giannis Antetokounmpo and his Bucks, second in the standings in the east, mocked by the Suns who thus put in the game bag the fourth consecutive victory and interrupted the positive streak of Milwaukee that had been going on for five races.

In his splendid match, which ended badly, Antetokounmpo also put his seal on 11 rebounds and 5 assists.

But it didn't help.

    In the other challenges of this round, the Lakers' third consecutive overtime victory stands out, with Lebron James once again decisive: his the ball stolen a few seconds from the end for the basket that gave the Californians the victory for 114-113 against Oklahoma.

Positive turn also for the Clippers, third in the standings in the west just behind the Lakers, victorious over Minnesota for 119-112.

Worth noting is the heavy knockout of the Cavs with Denver, 133-95, and the success of the Nets over Indiana for 104-94.

    In the rankings, the Sixers are at the top in the east, Utah Jazz in the west.
