Aside from Washington's win over Minnesota, tonight (Tuesday through Wednesday) we had quite a few interesting games in the NBA, with the Los Angeles Lakers losing to the Phoenix Suns, which officially ended the team's season from City of Angels.
Phoenix Suns - Los Angeles Lakers 110: 121
Huge shame for the Lakers.
Although things were only seen at the start of the season, no one expected it to end in such a way that the City of Angels team would not even make it to the playoffs.
Without LeBron James, but with the purple-yellow Anthony Davis and Russell Westbrook still trying to fight in the first half it was not enough against the quality host.
Devin Booker led his team in the scoring table with 32 points and 7 rebounds while Diandra Eyton assisted him with 22 points and 13 rebounds.
For the loser, Westbrook finished with 28 points while Davis also finished with 28 points and 13 rebounds but that as mentioned did not help prevent a very big embarrassment.
The Lakers have officially been eliminated from playoff contention.

Utah (32:47) - Memphis (24:55) 115: 121 (after overtime)
The Jazz interrupted the Grizzlies' seven-game winning streak.
The wonderful Rudy Gober finished the game with 22 points and no less than 21 rebounds while Jordan Clarkson added 22 for the hosts.
Donovan Mitchell with 20 and Hassan Whiteside with 14 points and 10 rebounds also took part in the celebration.
At the guest Jaren Jackson Jr. finished with 28, Tios Jones contributed 24 and Desmond Bain scored 23, but without the big star Ja Morant it was no easy task from the start of the game.
