At 134: 132, the 29-year-old only had a minor role despite his 16 points. Luka Doncic and Steph Curry fought a spectacular duel for the most points and the greatest influence on the game. Warriors star Curry had an outstanding 57 points and eleven converted three-pointers, some of them from the center circle, but Doncic was able to look forward to the Mavericks’ tenth win of the season with 42 points.
“Every time he threw, I had the feeling he was going in. It’s unbelievable, I’ve never seen anything like it, “said Doncic. “They are incredible players, both of them with an exceptional game today. Especially Steph, who really hit everything, “said Kleber, who was himself praised by coach Rick Carlisle:” Kleber’s big hit in the end was super important. “
Nikola Jokic also had an outstanding game and achieved a career record with 50 points, but lost 114: 119 with the Denver Nuggets against the Sacramento Kings. The Philadelphia 76ers defended their top spot in the Eastern Conference with a 124: 108 against the Brooklyn Nets, who had to do without Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant.
The Los Angeles Lakers had much more trouble than expected in the 135: 129 against the Detroit Pistons and, despite an 18-point lead, needed two extra times against the bottom of the table. Like Utah Jazz at the top of the Western Conference, the defending champion now has 18 wins this season. National player Dennis Schröder scored 22 points.
