New Orleans (27:27) - L.A.
Lakers (29:25) 126:131
LeBron James continues his journey towards the all-time NBA scoring record, but so far it's not helping his team.
King James spent another 40 long minutes on the floor tonight and is now only 36 points away from Kareem Abdul Jabbar's record (38,387), but the Lakers surrendered to New Orleans, who snapped a ten-game losing streak.
"I just want to win," said the frustrated LeBron, "just play right and see what happens."
So what happened is that Brandon Ingram came back to himself and scored 35 points, C.J. McCallum added 23 points, and the Lakers, who were already leading by 12 in the third quarter, are once again disappointed.
Anthony Davis scored 34 points and grabbed 14 rebounds for the Lakers, who are also thinking about a possible trade and the addition of Kyrie Irving. When LeBron was asked tonight if he could help the Lakers win the championship, he answered: "Of course, the answer is yes when you talk about a player like that."
Golden State (26:27) - Dallas (26:28) 113:119
Concern in Golden State.
Stephen Curry was injured during the third quarter, had an X-ray that revealed nothing special but will undergo an MRI.
"Every time a player has to undergo an MRI there is room for concern," admitted coach Steve Kerr, who tonight saw his team manage to beat Dallas without the injured Luka Doncic.
Draymond Green again provided diverse statistics when he scored 17 points and added 9 rebounds and 9 assists, in a game where the champion led 23:40 after the first quarter.
Spencer Dinwiddie (25 points) led the Mavs to a comeback and the visitors narrowed it to 116:11 with 1:28 minutes remaining, but Golden State managed to keep the lead until the end.
Kerry scored 21 points and added 7 assists and 6 rebounds before he was injured, and the champions will hope that he will return quickly.
Milwaukee (17:36) - Miami (25:29) 115:123
With all the noise around the big stars, there is one star who gives quiet and steady work: Giannis Antetokounmpo delivered an impressive triple double tonight that included 35 points, 15 rebounds and 11 assists (a season high), and the Bucks already have their seventh win in a row.
Jimmy Butler (32) and Tyler Hero (24) stood out in the ranks of Miami, which arrived with only 9 players in the squad (Olidipo and Kyle Lowry are injured, among others), but it is doubtful if anything could have stopped the fiery Greek Freak, who just two days ago scored 54 points And in total, in Milwaukee's winning streak, he is averaging 39.4 points, 14.7 rebounds and 5.0 assists.
Khris Middleton added 24 for the Bucks.
Unstoppable.

Detroit (40:14) - Phoenix (26:29) 116:100
DeAndre Ayton scored 31 points and grabbed 16 rebounds, and the recovering Phoenix recorded its eighth victory in its last ten games, with the injured Devin Booker set to return, as well as the optimism in the unstable team.
Chris Paul dished out 14 assists but finished 0-for-7 from the field (for the first time without a field goal since 2017), but Mykel Bridges added 24 for the Suns.
The Pistons, on the other hand, continue their journey towards the worst balance in the league, in the battle for this summer's lottery.
Sadiq Bay's 25 points were not enough.
New York (26:28) - L.A.
Clippers (26:30) 134:128
Kawhi Leonard scored 35 points, Paul George scored 30, and the Clippers manage to win after overtime in New York.
The Clippers had already lost a 17-point lead in the fourth quarter (!), but Nicolas Batum hit a three-pointer at the buzzer that tied the game at 115:115 and sent the game to overtime.
In addition, the Clippers scored the first 4 points and kept the advantage until the end, with Kawhi scoring 8 of 8 in overtime and closing the story.
Norman Powell added 24 points for the Clippers, who recorded their seventh victory in the last nine.
Jaylen Brunson scored 41 points for the Knicks, Julius Randle 28.
Denver (16:37) - Atlanta (27:27) 108:128
Jamal Murray scored a season-high 41 points, Nikola Jokic recorded 18 triple-doubles this season (all of which the Nuggets won) when he finished with 14 points, 18 rebounds and 10 assists, and Denver won its third straight.
The Nuggets, who have won 19 of their last 20, are tied with Boston for the best record in the league.
The Hawks still managed to reduce the deficit from 18 at the break to only 9, but Denver responded with a 2:15 run.
Dejounte Murray led the Hawks with 28.
