Seven games were played tonight (between Sunday and Monday) in the NBA.
In focus: Brooklyn won again and Kevin Durant was also injured, and Trae Young led Atlanta to victory over the Clippers.
Miami (20:21) - Brooklyn (13:27) 102:101
Brooklyn's 12-game winning streak was snapped by Chicago, and tonight the new streak continued with the second win in a row.
With three seconds to go, Royce O'Neal took control of a rebound from Kyrie Irving's shot and scored a dramatic winning basket for the Nets.
The worrying news comes from the direction of Kevin Courant, who was injured and had to leave the floor in the third quarter.
Before leaving, the star finished with 17 points, Irving scored 29. On the losing side, Butler finished with 26, Hiro with 24.
Right place, right time.

Clippers (21:21) - Atlanta (21:19) 112:108
Atlanta was already on its way to a sixth loss in seven games, and then Trae Young arrived.
After losing a double-digit lead and falling behind like that in the final quarter, Young took the reins and won the game for the Hawks.
14 points in the final quarter and his team's final 8 points helped the star finish with 30 total, to which he added 8 assists.
DeAndre Hunter contributed 20 of his own.
For the Clippers, Leonard stood out with 29 and Ivica Zubac added 17 points along with 18 rebounds.
