Four games were played tonight (between Thursday and Friday) in the NBA where the focus was on the tremendous display of Memphis that defeated Milwaukee and in addition we were treated to an impressive individual performance by Tyler Hero in Miami's victory over Houston.
Memphis Grizzlies (9:18) - Milwaukee Bucks (7:20) 101:142
A hard humiliation for the claimant to the crown against one of the biggest stars in the league, who showed once again how far he can go.
Ja Morant provided a triple double of 25 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists with Dillon Brooks adding 18 and Tyus Jones completing 16 for the host who already led by 50 points.
Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bobby Fortis scored 19 for the Bucks, who looked bad, couldn't get any closer, and in the third quarter they already realized that it's better for them to concentrate on the next game against the Utah Gaz on the night between Saturday and Sunday.
Ja Morant tonight:
26 Points
10 Rebounds
10 Assists
Only 25 Minutes.

Houston Rockets (19:9) - Miami Heat (15:15) 111:108
What a night for Tyler Hero.
The wonderful guard delivered the best game of his career as he finished with 41 points, including a club record 10 3-pointers in just 15 attempts while carrying his teammates on his back, without Bam Adebayo and Kyle Lowry being absent.
Jimmy Butler helped him with 20 points and 10 rebounds, which is in an even balance now.
For the loser, Jaylen Green with 22 points was the leading scorer with Kevin Porter Jr. helping him with 21 points and missing a 3-pointer at the buzzer in an attempt to force overtime.
TYLER HERRO has 19 3PTS over his last 2 games 🔥
41 PTS (10/15 3PT)
35 PTS (9/17 3PT)
The last Heat player with 35+ PTS in consecutive games was LeBron (37 & 36) in 2014. pic.twitter.com/uLsai8AWbx
