Concurrent with the game between Washington and Danny Abdia tonight (Wednesday through Thursday), ten more NBA games were played.
Focus: Milwaukee has beaten the Lakers on a record display of Yannis Antocompo and Phoenix has continued its formidable winning streak.
Milwaukee - Lakers 102: 109.
The champion knew she had to get her first home win after four losses and who if not Yannis Antocompo would help her meet the task - in the best way she could.
The Greek freak finished with 47 points (21 of them only in the first quarter) to which he also added 9 rebounds while one of his record shows.
Chris Middleton came back after missing eight games because of the Corona and finished with 16 points - including two important threes in the final quarter - that helped him equal Ray Allen on the club's three-point scoring list.
The Lakers, without LeBron James returning for the game against Boston on Friday, were led by Russell Watbrook with 19 points and 15 rebounds and Anthony Davis with 18 points and 9 rebounds.
Phoenix - Dallas 98: 105.
And from champion to her deputy.
Phoenix achieved its tenth (!) Consecutive win tonight and is the first to do so since the 2009/10 season.
The Mavericks proved they had something to contribute even without their star Luca Doncic absent from the game, but a 2: 9 run at the end set the Suns up for the win.
50 seconds to go Devin Booker sniped a big three that actually closed the story.
Boker finished with 24 points and 9 rebounds, Diandra Eyton added 19 and 13 rebounds, and Chris Paul with 7 points and 14 assists.
Forzingis, who wanted to take the opportunity in the absence of Doncic, recorded a less-than-good shooting evening (7 of 20 from the field and 2 of 7 for three) that set him at 21 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists.
