Oklahoma City - Houston 92: 113. It's not new, but every time a former star comes to stay on the field he had at home, the excitement is great. So was the case in the case of Russell Westbrook, who came with the Rockets to Thunder Hall, and was accepted with love.
Love, it turned out shortly after the Jump Bowl, is painful, and the Rockets could not avert the defeat of Westbrook, who was used to 11 years of being a Oklahoma City native. He did give his usual nice numbers, scoring 34 points, but the game was over after one quarter, when Thunder ended the lead with 17 points.
By the end of the day, we had Garage Time a sibling, with Danilo Glynari with 23 points and Shay Giglas Alexander with 20 points leading the winner, Chris Paul also contributing 18 points. The Thunder completed 11 wins in 13 games.

Philadelphia - Boston 98: 109 The center of this game did not include basketball moves, but the knowledge that Sixers star Joel Embiid would have to undergo surgery and be absent for at least two weeks due to a repeat injury to one of his left fingers.
On the other hand, it was also the host of motivation throws, who wanted to prove they had it without Embiid. The game itself was tight and the Celtics had a small lead at the end of the last quarter, but then Philadelphia burst, making 18:32, and cruising to an important victory.
Josh Richardson was the winning factor of the winner with 29 points, with Ben Simmons adding 19 of his own. Kamba Walker with 26 points and Marcus Smart with 24 points did not hide the limp Boston suffered recently.
