What you missed that night in NBA and NHL
Dusseldorf While most Europeans are asleep, the North American professional leagues are busy. What happened during the night in American football, basketball and ice hockey. Today among other things: defeats for German national players.
Basketball: defeats for Schröder and Kleber
Basketball national player Dennis Schröder, like his German colleague Maximilian Kleber, suffered a defeat in the North American professional league NBA. Schröder lost with the Boston Celtics 90: 111 at the Phoenix Suns, Kleber lost with the Dallas Mavericks 93: 106 at the Indiana Pacers. Without Daniel Theis, the Houston Rockets lost against the Milwaukee Bucks with 114: 123.
Starter Schröder got 15 points against Phoenix and contributed three rebounds and assists. Record champions Boston are not moving in the Eastern Conference and are only tenth after twelve wins from 25 games.
As seventh in the west, the former Dirk Nowitzki Club Dallas Mavericks is in a slightly better position, at least visually, with the same balance sheet. Kleber hardly appeared at the Pacers and came up with two points and rebounds. The Mavs’ best thrower was Luka Doncic with 27 points.
A few days after his return to the starting lineup of the Houston Rockets, Daniel Theis was once again ignored against Milwaukee. It was the end of a winning streak for ex-champion Houston after the last six wins in a row. With only eight successes in 25 encounters, the Rockets can only be found in 13th place. Outstanding player on the floor was Milwaukee’s superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo with 41 points.
Like Theis, international Isaac Bonga did not appear in the 90:87 success of his new club Toronto Raptors against the New York Knicks.
Ice hockey: Seider loses, get off the ice early
Ice hockey national player Moritz Seider scored the 16th assist in his debut season for the Detroit Red Wings in the North American professional league, but was unable to prevent the 3-7 at the Colorado Avalanche. The young professional stood on the ice for 23 minutes and scored five shots.
The appearance of Detroit goalkeeper Thomas Greiss was only brief. After the third goal to make it 3-0 in the eleventh minute, the German goalkeeper had to clear the goal for his opponent Alex Nedeljkovic.
The best team in the league are the Florida Panthers, who have 40 points after their 3-1 victory at the Arizona Coyotes. Detroit is eighth in the Eastern Conference with 29 points from 28 games.
