From the top of his 1,025 NBA games, Nicolas Batum had a great moment in his American career last night! With a three-point shot at the buzzer, the Clippers veteran snatched overtime in the heart of the legendary Madison Square Garden
It was there French Heritage Night au Madison Square Garden et Nicolas Batum took the theme of the evening to the letter. Author of a siren tap dance against the Spurs on March 26, 2011, the Clippers winger offered himself the second buzzer-beater of his NBA career in the mythical New York enclosure. Either one of the moments we will talk about in a few years when leafing through the book of his career with more than 1,000 games in the Association. While Jalen Brunson believed he had given the victory to the Knicks, the Norman rose above the long segments of Isaiah Hartenstein to snatch the extension. “I thought Paul George was going to shoot so I was a little surprised the ball came to me. »he then commented on BallySports. “I really didn’t have time so I shot without thinking. Guess it was a lucky shot. » Not really no, since it is above all a reward for his summer work. During the off-season, the hero of Tokyo 2021 wanted to increase the speed of his shooting gestures, with in particular an exercise where he had to take 100 shots in 5 minutes. “Sometimes you’ll just get a late pass and you have to catch it as you can to shoot immediately. I trained for this all summer, it paid off”he underlined at the microphone of the LA Times.

Three other French people were out on the NBA courts last night. Let’s move on Frank Ntilikina, who did not have time to speak in San Francisco (2 minutes). The evening was much more successful for Ousmane Dieng who signed his best game since returning from injury in mid-January: taking advantage of the weak opposition offered by Houston (153-121), the Thunder rookie compiled 9 points at 3/7, 4 rebounds and 3 assists in 22 minutes. On the other hand, Killian Hayes confirms that he is again in the trough of the wave: on his last three outings, the leader of Detroit runs at 21% success. Against Phoenix (100-116 defeat), he remained very discreet with 4 points at 1/6, 1 rebound and 3 assists in 18 minutes. But he has already proven that he is capable of getting out of such a bad patch…
