Jordi Fernández’s Nets gave the surprise of the day after beating the Warriors at home by 120-128. Those from San Francisco had a 16-point advantage at the beginning of the third quarter, but the New York franchise weathered the storm and obtained an award for its resilience, which places it in seventh position in the Eastern Conference with a balance of 8 -10.
Dennis Schroder led Brooklyn with 31 points and seven assists, well accompanied by Cameron Thomas (23 points), Ziaire Williams (19 points and ten rebounds) and Jalen Williams (18 points and seven rebounds). Stephen Curry’s 28 points were of no use for the Californians, as were the contributions of Andrew Wiggins (18 points) and Moses Moody (15 points).
On the other hand, Memphis achieved a comfortable victory against Portland with the return of Ja Morant, who scored 22 points and distributed 11 assists. The point guard formed a stellar duo with Santi Aldama, who had a remarkable performance, with 13 points and 17 rebounds, his best mark in balls captured.
Jaren Jackson Jr. added 21 points to be another of the strongholds of the team coached by Taylor Jenkins. In Portland, Deni Avdija (17 points and eight rebounds) and Shaedon Sharpe (15 points) stood out.
In Sacramento, Oklahoma beat the Kings by a solid 109-130. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander showed his team the way with a dominant mark of 27 points and 11 assists. Additionally, Jalen Williams reached 28 points and Isaiah Hartenstein achieved a double-double (17 points and ten rebounds). Mark Daigneault’s team is first in the Western Conference at 13-4.
On the part of the Californians, DeMar DeRozan’s 30 points or Domantas Sabonis’ 21 points and ten rebounds were not enough. Mike Brown’s men were also not helped by Keegan Murray’s 14 points and ten rebounds.
