The Celtics win their eighth straight and still the hottest team in the league.. It was a total team effort and the bench chipped in again on a night when Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown we’re a little off. Boston shot phenomenally well from behind the three-point line and pasted the Hawks as a result. Lamelo Ball is back in the lineup for the Charlotte Hornets but his 26 points went in vain as the Hornets lost to the Indiana Pacers. Anthony Edwards snapped out of his shooting slump with 35 points and eight rebounds to lead the T Wolves over the Orlando Magic.
Bol Bol added 26 and 12 for the Magic. SGA was a hero last night propelling the Oklahoma City Thunder to victory over the Wizards pouring in 42 points including a game-winning three. The Miami Heat lost to the Toronto Raptors who were led by O.G. Anunoby who had 32 points and 10 rebounds for the Raptors. Giannis had a mini double-double with 16 points and 12 rebounds to lead the Bucks past the Cavaliers. The Pelicans picked up their ninth win of the season over the Bulls behind 23 points from CJ McCollum.
Kevin Porter Jr had 17 points and 11 rebounds to help the Rockets past the Mavericks and picked up their third win of the season in the process. Julius Randle had 34 points and 11 rebounds to lead the Knicks over the Nuggets. It was the 8th win of the season for the Knicks. Steph Curry went for 50 last night but it was in vain as the Warriors continued to struggle on the road as they lose to the Suns 130 – 119. The Warriors are 6 – 9.
