The descent of NBA record champions Los Angeles Lakers does not end. The team around superstar LeBron James conceded a 104:124 at the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday evening (local time) and thus the 16th defeat in the past 21 games. After the eleventh away defeat in a row, the team only has a narrow lead in tenth place. From eleventh place there is no longer a chance of the playoffs via qualification. For the third year in a row, the league’s glamor team trailed by more than 25 points – an unprecedented level in the NBA for a team with James on the roster.
–
“My patience is being tested more than in previous years simply because of the way we play,” said James.

The Lakers also got pressure from the 122:120 victory of the San Antonio Spurs over the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Spurs are currently eleventh in the Western Conference.
–
The Dallas Mavericks, on the other hand, secured a valuable win against the Brooklyn Nets. In the 113:111 secured in the last second, Luka Doncic scored 37 points, national basketball player Maxi Kleber hit two important free throws for a late lead and ended the evening with four points. In the Nets, Kevin Durant had to be content with 23 points as the best pitcher.
–
The Nets are also currently outside the top six in the Eastern Conference, which entitles them to direct participation in the playoffs. The 114-118 loss of the sixth-ranked Cleveland Cavaliers to the Philadelphia 76ers helped the Nets. Steph Curry injured his foot in the 110-88 draw of the Boston Celtics against the Golden State Warriors and was unable to continue playing.
