Milwaukee (17:42) - Miami (28:32) 99:128
Giannis Antetokounmpo, who was in doubt for this game, started in Milwaukee's five.
But after only six minutes the superstar left the floor due to pain in his knee and did not return.
But even without him, the Bucks had no trouble dismantling the Heat and achieving a 13th consecutive victory (the best streak in the league).
How did they do it?
Mainly thanks to Jaro Holiday who contributed 24 points, 7 assists and 5 rebounds.
Bobby Portis recorded 18 points and 11 rebounds in his return game from injury and Brook Lopez made up for the lack of the Greek Freak with 17 points, with Khris Middleton providing 12.
Jimmy Butler scored 23 on the other hand, Bam Adebayo contributed 18, but Miami scored only 9 of 40 from outside the arc and did not take advantage of Yannis' lack with a defensive performance as well.
Atlanta (30:30) - Cleveland (25:38) 119:136
Atlanta returned from the All-Star break with a new coach and renewed motivation and dismantled the powerful Cubs who were probably tired after a second straight game.
Trae Young was hot with 34 points, Dejonta Murray added 25 and the two arranged a debut victory for former coach Joe Prunetti.
Darius Garland led on the other hand with 33, Danoven Mitchell contributed 19 but the two did not prevent a third consecutive loss.

Golden State (30:30) - Houston (46:13) 101:116
A day after the loss against the Lakers, Golden State received an opponent by invitation and returned to win easily and as expected against perhaps the weakest team in the league.
Klay Thompson continued to make up for Curry's deficit with an incredible 42-point outburst and a 12-of-19 shooting night from beyond the arc, where he took all of his shots.
Thompson became the first player in history to hit at least 12 3-pointers in more than one game in one season and it's scary to think what will happen when Steph Curry joins him.
Jordan Paul added 15 for the champions, who closed their deficit but are still in a bad position in the fight for the playoffs.
Kenyon Martin Jr. led the other way with 22.
