Except for the game between the Brooklyn Nets and the Washington Wizards, in which the team from New York won, tonight there were 8 more games in the best league in the world, with the Lakers losing to New Orleans and the Golden State champion winning over Dallas.
New Orleans (27:27) - L.A. Lakers (29:25) 126:131
Although LeBron James came within 36 points of Kareem Abdul Jaber's record, he was unable to help his team win against New Orleans, which ended a 10-game losing streak.
Brandon Ingram finished the game as the host's leading scorer with 35 points, CJ McCallum added 23 points, and the Lakers, who already led by 12, will have to recover in the next game to get back on track.
Anthony Davis scored 34 points and added 14 rebounds.

Golden State (26:27) - Dallas (26:28) 113:119
The champions managed to overcome the Mavericks who were missing Luka Doncic but entered into major concerns themselves after Steph Curry was injured during the third quarter and will undergo tests to rule out a serious injury.
Draymond Green was the standout among the hosts when he finished with 17 points, 9 rebounds and 9 assists.
Until he was injured Kerry scored 21 points and added 7 assists and 6 rebounds.
For the loser, Spencer Dinwiddie stood out, finishing with 25 points.

Milwaukee (17:36) - Miami (25:29) 115:123
Giannis Antetokounmpo didn't enter too much into the conversation surrounding the MVP selection of the regular season but I can't say that he is not a worthy candidate.
The Greek finished his night with another triple-double that included 35 points, 15 rebounds and 11 assists en route to a seventh straight win for the Bucks, with Khris Middleton adding 24 of his own.
For Miami, Jimmy Butler was the leading scorer with 32 points and Tyler Hero added 24 that failed to help the Heat get a prestigious away win.
