A few days before the end of the regular season, the NBA split into two very distinct groups. On the one hand the ambitious teams in the short term, whose goal is therefore to win games, we agree, and on the other a few franchises whose ambitions are clearly turned towards the Draft, all the more so in this year which should crown Victor Wembanyama with the status of first pick.

- Hornets – Mavericks : 110-104 (stats)
- Lakers – Bulls : 108-118 (stats)

Le Tankathon 2023
Good deal of the day – Rockets, Spurs and Blazers: Not too many surprises in the slums with Houston and San Antonio continuing to lose. The Texans did not pretend with a loss of 44 points, the widest of the Popovich era… The Blazers are also quietly returning to the Lottery race, returning to the Magic.
Bad Trade of the Day – Hornets: Well, we put them there but deep down, we know that Charlotte won’t move from her place. Too strong to catch the three dunces behind but too weak to match those in front. If they win at the end of the season to end on a positive note, why not eh!
