Six games were played tonight (between Thursday and Friday) in the NBA.
In focus was Golden State's defeat in Memphis, which continued the alarming trend for the champion in away games.
Milwaukee recorded a 19th win in 20 games, despite the absence of Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Detroit (52:15) - Charlotte (46:22) 113:103
Indiana (37:30) - Houston (51:15) 125:134 (after overtime)
Orlando (40:27) - Utah (35: 32) 131:124

Memphis (26:39) - Golden State (33:34) 110:131
The meetings between the teenage star team and the future team of the NBA became especially heated on and off the court.
Tonight, just hours after Draymond Green teased Dillon Brooks and called him an "idiot," Memphis players sent him a clear message, with a win that snapped a three-game losing streak since Jay Morant's suspension and continued the Warriors' troubling trend in road games.
Steph Kerry and his friends are now on a streak of 8 away losses, and a dismal 26:7 record throughout the season.
This time too they dug a hole for themselves, after the Grizzlies opened up a 20 lead in the first quarter.
Curry tried to get Golden State back on track, but a dominant final quarter by the Grizzlies secured them a convincing victory.
Tyus Jones with 22 points and 11 assists, Jaren Jackson with 21 and 8 rebounds and Desmond Bain with 21, led the winner, while 29 of Kerry, 22 of Jordan Paul and 16 and 7 Draymond Green's assists were not enough for the Warriors.
Milwaukee (18:48) - Brooklyn (29:37) 113:118
Even without the injured Giannis Antetokounmpo, the team with the best balance in the league looks sharp and dominant.
Tonight she recorded her 19th win in the last 20 games, mainly thanks to Brook Lopez's extraordinary excellence on both sides of the court.
The underrated center came close to a triple-double and finished with 24 points, 10 rebounds and a career high of no less than 9 blocks - which are also a record for blocks in a single game this season.
Bobby Portis added 28 and 13 rebounds, and it was enough to defeat the Nets in a very lacking lineup, without Nice Claxton, Spencer Dinwiddie, Royce O'Neal and Ben Simmons.
Patty Mills led the losers with 23 points.
Indiana (37:30) - Houston (51:15) 125:134 (after overtime)
The Pacers made it tough, dragged into overtime, but eventually defeated one of the weakest teams in the league with the help of Tyrese Halliburton's exploits.
The talented center scored 28 points - 12 of them in overtime in which he took control of the game - added a career-high 19 assists, and avoided an embarrassing loss after Jabari Smith's 3-pointer with 4 seconds left in regulation forced overtime.
Myles Turner added 21 and 7 blocks for the winner, while Jabari Smith scored 30 and pulled down 12 rebounds for the Rockets, who lost to Indiana for the seventh straight time.

Another great game from one of the most underrated players in the league.

Orlando (40:27) - Utah (35:32) 131:124
The Jazz came back to win after four consecutive losses.
Lauri Markkanen with 21 points, Tylen Horton Tucker with 23 and Walker Kessler with 13, 10 rebounds and a decisive basket that closed the matter with half a minute to go led the way to victory, while the Magic received 26 from Paolo Bancro, 25 from Markell Fultz and 24 from Franz Wagner, but suffered a third consecutive loss.
Detroit (52:15) - Charlotte (46:22) 113:103
Win 7 in 10 games for the Hornets, who continue to show improved ability and enjoy a good season from Kelly Oubre, who again led the scoring list with 27. Terry Rozier added 21 and -9 assists and PJ Washington contributed 20, in what was the Pistons' 10th straight loss.
Detroit was led by Corey Joseph with 17 and James Wiseman with 16 and 13 rebounds.
