The night of the blues: Evan Fournier beaten with New York, Killian Tillie participates in the Memphis festival

It is a small statistic which held until then, swept by the Chicago Bulls Thursday evening. Since the start of the season, the New York Knicks had consistently won their game whenEvan Fournier scored at least four award-winning shots (7 wins). At Madison Square Garden, the French international, silver medalist at the Tokyo Olympics, split four long-distance baskets (out of 10 attempts) but his team fell narrowly (115-119).

More generally, Fournier lacked skill (16 points to 6 of 14 shooting), which he managed to compensate with a strong defensive presence (4 interceptions). The full-back was one of the few New Yorkers to score from a distance (4 of 9 New York three-pointers), along with Immanuel Quickley (3 of 9).

Appreciable playing time for Tillie

For his 26th appearance in the NBA, the interior Killian Tillie took advantage of the improbable scenario between his Memphis Grizzlies and the Oklahoma City Thunder – 73 point victory for Memphis (152-79) – to spend 15 minutes on the floor, the fourth biggest playing time of his career (his record is 37 minutes at the end of last season). The former resident of Gonzaga University admittedly scored 6 points for two rebounds, but he was the least prolific replacement of his team. Thunder side, Théo Maledon was not on the scoresheet.

During the Detroit Pistons’ loss to the Phoenix Suns (103-114), who took the opportunity to extend their winning streak to eighteen, Killian Hayes did a bit of everything: 10 points (4 of 9), 6 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks. Even more interesting: when he was on the floor, his team put eight points more than Phoenix (best + / – of his team).
