Charlotte (19:22) - Milwaukee (17:26) 99: 103

Charlotte's impressive win over the champion and another game in which Lamello Bull has demonstrated the great potential he has. Milwaukee, who opened the fourth quarter 9 points behind, managed to force a 99-point tie with Wesley Matthews' lay nose. But Lamelo Bull scored a big basket with 15 seconds left, Antocompo lost and Bridges won the game from the line. Bull finished this game with 23 points, but 18 of them came in the second half. Terry Roger led with 27 and Miles Bridges added 17 and 11 rebounds for Charlotte, which has won six of its last eight games. Chris Middleton (27) and Yannis Antocompo (26, 13 rebounds and 8 assists) led the Bucks, who also lost to the Hornets on Saturday.

A very surprising victory for Detroit, which continues to be one of the weakest teams in the league but proves that at least it has a future and that future is called Cade Cunningham. The Pistons rookie recorded a career-high 29 points, 18 of them in the third quarter that ended in a crushing 23:40 to the hosts, who managed to erase a 22-point deficit. Sadiq Bay added 29 of its own to Detroit, which climbed to a 2-4 balance in 2022 after losing 18 of its 19 previous games. Donovan Mitchell scored 31 for Utah, Hassan Whiteside developed in place of Rudy Gober, was good with 21 and 14 rebounds, but it was not the day of Utah losing some height with a third straight loss.

Indiana continues to play in a very short roster without Malcolm Brogdon and Chris Lewart its key players and also to give a fight, but again suffered a loss in a close game.

Robert Williams scored 14 points, dropped 12 rebounds and also recorded a critical abduction in a 98: 101 situation for his team and actually secured the win.

Jaylen Brown led with 26 points, including big baskets in overtime.

Jason Taitum added 24. On the other hand, Torrey Craig led the Pacers with 19 points, Lance Stevenson added 14 and Domantas Savonis contributed just 11 points, but provided a triple double that was not enough with 11 assists and no less than 23 rebounds.

29 points and a surprising victory.

HOUSTON (31:11) - Philadelphia (16:23) 111: 91

Joel Ambide continues to show an ability that should earn him a regular season MVP nomination. Philly's great chin recorded a seventh straight game with at least 30 points as he scored 31 and also added 8 rebounds and 6 assists. Ambide is only the second player in the history of this league to score exactly 31 points in four consecutive games. It was the Sixers' seventh straight victory, the hottest team in the league after Memphis. Andre Drummond added 13 and 11 rebounds for the winners while Christian Wood and Jaylen Green on the other hand contributed 14 that were far from enough.

After quarreling with Julius Randall, the Knicks fans found a new idol: RJ Barrett recorded a great game with 31 points, including 17 in the second half and heard MVP calls from the stands.

Randall, who confronted the fans in the previous home game, provided just 2 points and threw just seven times to the basket, but Bart and Fournier covered him as the Frenchman added 18 points.

DeJonte Marie led as usual with 24 points for the Spurs, who are missing some key players and continue to lose.
