The Utah Jazz (20 - 25) defeated the Charlotte Hornets (22 - 24) 102 - 73 at Vivint Smart Home Arena on Wednesday. The Hornets fell behind early in the contest and were not able to cut into the lead after the Jazz went up by 12 point before the half. Charlotte was banged up heading into the matchup, but the return of Nicolas Batum (toe), who missed three consecutive games, was a bright spot. Jeremy Lin (ankle) exited the game after logging 17 minutes with a right ankle sprain, but the severity of the injury is unknown until further evaluation. Lin scored four points and grabbed two rebounds before exiting. Batum was strong on the defensive glass, as shown by his 10 rebounds, to go along with six points in just under 30 minutes in his return to the starting lineup. Kemba Walker shot efficiently from the floor, but the volume of shots was not available to keep the Hornets in contention, as he finished with 15 points on 7 - of - 11 shooting, in addition to five rebounds and one assist.

However, Orlando did struggle from three - point range, tallying only a 24 percent success rate (6 - for - 25).. Despite still sporting a winless record, the Sixers are seeing some encouraging play from a mix of young players and vets. Sergio Rodriguez once again impressed Tuesday with a 12 - point, 11 - assist double - double, while Embiid continued fulfilling his considerable potential with an 18 - point, 10 - rebound performance.

The Hornets will visit the Suns on Thursday, while LA will visit their historic rival, the Boston Celtics on Friday.

The Los Angeles Clippers (29 - 16) defeated the Indiana Pacers (23 - 22) 91 - 89 on Tuesday. The Clippers found out earlier in the day that superstar forward Blake Griffin will be sidelined for much longer than originally anticipated, but his problematic quadriceps tendon is n't the cause. Instead, it's a broken right hand allegedly suffered during an altercation with a team employee in Toronto that will apparently keep him out 4 - 6 additional weeks. His continued absence keeps the spotlight squarely on Chris Paul, who has more often than not already served as the team's scoring leader during the time Griffin has already missed. The All-Star point guard did not disappoint in that role Tuesday, scoring a team - high 26 points and adding seven assists, six rebounds and a steal. With only J.J.

George Hill posted 15 points, two assists, a rebound and a steal. Ian Mahinmi returned from a three - game absence due to ankle and heel ailments to post a 12 - point, 10 - rebound double - double, which he complemented with a pair of assists and a pair of steals.

The performance marked the third consecutive game the standout shooting guard has scored 20 points or more.

The Portland Trail Blazers (31 - 28) defeated the Chicago Bulls (30 - 28) 103 - 95 on Saturday. Portland was able to secure a win for the 16th time in the last 20 games on the strength of a typically stellar effort from offensive linchpin Damian Lillard, along with strong performances from two of their best bench players. After a dead - even first period, Portland forged ahead in the second quarter to build a 10 - point lead by halftime.

Indiana came into Saturday's contest as one of the top defensive units in the Eastern Conference, tied for fourth - best in points allowed (99 per game). However, this same Pistons squad had gotten the best of them when they'd last faced off, Dec. 12 at the Palace in Detroit. The Pacers had been touched up for 118 points that night, and Indiana was apparently ready to exact some revenge Saturday.

The host Los Angeles Lakers beat the visiting Brooklyn Nets, 125 - 118, on Tuesday.

This was a huge win for the Bucks, as they are now tied with the Hawks for fifth place in the East.

The Minnesota Timberwolves defeated the Memphis Grizzlies 116 - 80 at Target Center on Tuesday. The Grizzlies (2 - 2) had essentially conceded the game before tip - off, as they rested both Marc Gasol and Mike Conley on the front end of a back - to - back. This resulted in some major offensive struggles for the Grizzlies, with four of their five starters failing to score in double figures, despite all of them playing at least 20 minutes. Additionally, as a team, Memphis shot a lowly 37 percent from the field and 17 percent from behind the arc. Rookie power forward Deyonta Davis led the way for the Grizzlies, scoring 17 points and grabbing six rebounds in 26 minutes off the bench. Troy Williams and Andrew Harrison were the only other Memphis players to score in double figures, scoring 14 and 12 points respectively in extended action. For the Timberwolves (1 - 2), they notched their first win of the season in effortless fashion. Zach LaVine shined in the outing, scoring a game - high 31 points in just 29 minutes. LaVine could n't miss, shooting a scorching 11 - of - 18 from the field and 5 - of - 9 from long range. Rookie point guard Kris Dunn also stood out in his rookie debut with Ricky Rubio out with a sprained right elbow, recording 10 points, six assists, four rebounds and five steals in 29 minutes. Everything else was the status quo for Minnesota, as Andrew Wiggins managed to record 17 points, while Karl-Anthony Towns posted a double - double of 11 points and 10 rebounds. For the Grizzlies, they'll head home Wednesday to take on the Pelicans, while the Timberwolves will return to action on Thursday against the Nuggets.

The Phoenix Suns (17 - 46) earned a road win over the Memphis Grizzlies (37 - 25) Sunday afternoon at FedExForum, 109 - 100. The Grizzlies led for much of the first half and took a six - point advantage into the halftime break. But the Suns exploded out of the break with a 25 - 6 run that included a four - minute scoreless drought by the Grizzlies. The Suns took an 11 - point lead into the final frame and the Grizzlies couldn’t even trim the deficit below five points in the fourth quarter. Suns guard Devin Booker led all scorers with 27 points (8 - 17 FG, 4 - 11 3PT, 7 - 7 FT) and added nine assists as he powered the Phoenix offense. Alex Len notched a double - double with 19 points (5 - 12 FG, 9 - 13 FT) and 16 rebounds to go with six assists and a pair of blocks. Mirza Teletovic scored 18 in just 20 minutes off the bench behind 4 - 7 shooting on three - pointers. He was just part of Phoenix’s lights out shooting, as they shot 52 percent from the floor and a sharp 12 - 28 (42 percent) from deep. Mike Conley’s 22 points (7 - 13 FG, 3 - 5 3PT, 5 - 6 FT) led the Grizzlies. Matt Barnes was the only other Memphis starter in double figures with 17 points (6 - 11 FG, 4 - 6 3PT). The Grizzlies offense sputtered despite a solid 10 - 22 (46 percent) shooting performance from three - point land, as they just couldn’t get it going inside. Memphis shot just 22 - 58 (38 percent) on two - point shots. Conley, Barnes and Jeff Green, who scored 17 points on 5 - 7 shooting off the bench, were the only Grizzlies to shoot at least 50 percent.

The Minnesota Timberwolves (22 - 46) defeated the Memphis Grizzlies (39 - 29) Wednesday night at FedExForum, 114 - 108. The final score made this one look closer than it was, as the Timberwolves opened up a 17 - point lead with a 42 - 25 first quarter, and the Grizzlies did n't pull any closer than nine points until late in the fourth quarter. Minnesota's largest lead was 20 in the third quarter as Memphis's lineup was exceptionally thin - - with Mike Conley, P.J. Hairston and Marc Gasol already out long - term, Zach Randolph (knee), Chris Andersen (shoulder) and Vince Carter (calf) were unable to suit up, and Lance Stephenson had to play 36 minutes despite suffering a wrist injury over the weekend. Zach LaVine led all scorers with 28 points, tying his second - highest output this season, as he knocked down six three - pointers and shot 11 - 19 from the floor. Karl-Anthony Towns scored 18 points (5 - 8 FG, 8 - 9 FT), grabbed 10 rebounds, dished four assists, nabbed two steals and blocked a shot. The Wolves ran ragged over the Grizzlies defense, as they shot 56 percent from the floor and 10 - 21 (48 percent) from the three - point line and assisted on 31 of their 40 made baskets. Stephenson's 24 points off the bench led the Grizzlies, and he added 11 rebounds and seven assists in a valiant effort. Memphis got double - doubles from Jeff Green (18 points, 10 rebounds) and Matt Barnes (14 points, 10 rebounds) and managed to grab an absurd 27 offensive rebounds on 56 missed shots. Their work on the boards almost fueled an unlikely comeback, but their poor shooting from deep (4 - 20, 20 percent) was too much to overcome. The Timberwolves continue their road trip Friday against the Rockets. The Grizzlies take off for a Thursday matchup against the Bucks.

The visiting Orlando Magic took down the Phoenix Suns on Friday, 109 - 103. Orlando (25 - 45) avoided a five - game losing streak by beating the Suns on Friday. Center Nikola Vucevic led the team with a whopping 17 rebounds on top of an efficient 18 points. Vucevic's monster contribution was necessary, as Orlando actually lost the team battle on the boards, 49 - 43. The Magic were able to squeak by with the win, though, on the basis of a superior three - point shooting night. Despite sinking only seven threes of their own, Orlando's perimeter defense was stifling, holding Phoenix to just 2 - of - 14 from three - point range. Orlando's Evan Fournier led the effort for the Magic from beyond the arc, as he sank three three - pointers on the night. Phoenix (22 - 47) has had a rough time this season, and recently shut down veteran point guard Eric Bledsoe for the season to increase the role of its young players. On Friday, that strategy seemed to work, as rookie point guard Tyler Ulis went for 19 points and eight assists in a starting role. Third-year forward T.J. Warren also continued his strong production. Warren shot 8 - of - 13 and went 10 - of - 10 from the free - throw line en route to a team - high 26 points. However, the two youngsters were not enough to propel Orlando to victory. The Suns will visit Detroit on Sunday, while the Magic host the 76ers on Monday.

The Milwaukee Bucks (10 - 15) pulled off a big upset and ended a historic streak by beating the undefeated Golden State Warriors (24 - 1) 108 - 95 on Saturday. The Bucks have now stopped the two - longest streaks in NBA history and they did it in dominating fashion on Saturday. It was clear there was an extra fire in the building and the Warriors just couldn’t muster up enough energy in the second half of a back - to - back to keep on winning. Milwaukee outshot the Warriors 49 percent to 41 percent and made just as many threes in 12 less attempts. The Warriors played a double - overtime thriller on Friday and that really hampered them here. Golden State looked extremely tired and just didn’t have their legs underneath them, by shooting just 6 - for - 26 from three - point range. They were also outassisted 31 - 23 and that's even more rare to see from this Golden State team. Steph Curry was still spectacular though, as he tallied 28 points, seven rebounds and five assists in the loss. Klay Thompson also made his return from a one - game absence and that's a silver lining in a tough result. The 24 - game winning streak is over, but it's time to reflect and appreciate how special of a run that actually was. Golden State wo n't play again until Wednesday when they host the Phoenix Suns to start a new winning - streak. The Bucks have had a rough season, but this win could be a springboard for a needed run. This shows how good this team can be at times, but the inconsistency is just so frustrating. Four players scored at least 17 points in the win, with the high - scorer being Greg Monroe with 28. Giannis Antetokounmpo had his first career triple - double as well and it couldn’t have come at a better time. The team also combined for an incredible 31 assists on 44 made baskets and that's a Warriors-esque stat. This is a much needed win for this young team, but it wo n't matter unless they keep this form going into their next game. They'll look to build off this win against the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday.

The Toronto Raptors (33 - 16) handed the Phoenix Suns (14 - 36) a 104 - 97 loss in the Suns' first game since firing coach Jeff Hornacek. The Raptors have been among the NBA's hottest teams since the turn of the new year. On Monday, Toronto saw a season - high 11 - game win streak finally come to a close with a loss to Denver. The disappointment seemed not to carry into Tuesday, however, as the Raptors dealt a loss to the struggling Suns. Toronto's All-Star backcourt - mates Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan shared Eastern Conference Player of the Month honors for January, as the duo helped lead the team to within three games of the Cavaliers for control of the East. Unsurprisingly, the tandem posted the Raptors' two highest scoring totals on Tuesday, with Lowry going for 26 and DeRozan scoring 22. It was an overall strong offensive showing for the Raps, as the team shot a combined 48 percent and turned the ball over just 12 times. Phoenix, meanwhile, has been in a tailspin since losing point guard Eric Bledsoe to a torn meniscus. The team has won just two of their last 22 games, and will now face the challenge of finding a new coach in addition to righting their sinking ship. One bright spot, however, has been rookie standout Devin Booker. The former Kentucky Wildcat exploded for 27 points on Tuesday, including six makes from beyond the arc. Booker has assumed heavy minutes and a starting role due to the absences of Bledsoe and injured shooting guard Brandon Knight. Phoenix will host Houston on Thursday. Toronto will also face off Thursday, traveling to Portland to take on the Trail Blazers.

Very little separated these teams in the box score, as they stayed close all evening long. Ball movement was key for Milwaukee, as they assisted on nearly 75 percent of their made baskets. Giannis Antetokounmpo continues his great play, as he is averaging 23 points, 10 rebounds and six assists a game so far this season. Anthony Davis is putting those numbers to shame though, as this game lowered his averages to 36 points and 13 rebounds per game. Tim Frazier continues to fill in admirably for Tyreke Evans and Jrue Holiday, as his 20 points and nine dimes were also on pace with his season averages. The Pelicans need more from their bench, as they got just 19 points on 7 - for - 17 shooting. There were some huge swings in the middle of this game, as the Bucks outscored the Pelicans 34 - 22 in the second quarter, while New Orleans countered with a 32 - 21 third quarter of their own.

The Cleveland Cavaliers (27 - 9) beat the Dallas Mavericks (22 - 17) 110 - 107 in an overtime thriller on Tuesday. Dallas has made a living off winning the turnover battle this season, but it was dominated in that department Tuesday. The Mavericks committed 16 turnovers to the Cavaliers' nine and that was ultimately the difference in the game. The Mavericks actually shot nearly 50 percent from the field which far outweighed the 41 percent Cleveland shot, but the Cavs simply made more big plays in overtime to pull out the big win. Cleveland is happy to have Kyrie Irving back in the fold and that couldn’t have been more evident than with this performance here. Not only did he hit a huge three late in OT, he finished the game with 22 points and nine assists. LeBron James was the star of the show though, as he tallied 27 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists in another MVP-type performance. Only four bench players played for the Cavs, but the three who played at least 20 minutes all scored in double - figures. On deck for the Cavaliers is a fantastic matchup, in which they'll stay in Texas to take on a San Antonio Spurs team that has yet to lose at home this season. The Mavericks continue to be an undervalued team and they nearly pulled off a huge win here. In fact, the last six times they have been an underdog by six or more points, they have covered five of those games including this one here. It was the starters that carried the load for this deep Dallas team, as the five of them combined for 83 points. Chandler Parsons scored a season - high 25 points and also grabbed eight rebounds in a great game. Deron Williams, Dirk Nowitzki and Zaza Pachulia all recorded double - doubles in what's been bounce - back years for all three of these veterans. This does go down as a loss in the record book, but other teams are surely taking note of the Mavs continuous quality play. Dallas will look to keep up the good ball against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday in their next game. Keep in mind that that matchup will be the second half of a back - to - back and some starters may be rested after this overtime loss.

Sunday saw the talented two - guard explode for 40 points for a second straight game, while also hauling in a pair of rebounds and recording a block. His standout performance was part of a remarkable night from the field for the Warriors, who managed a 53 percent success rate from the field, and a 42 percent figure from beyond the arc.

The Sacramento Kings saw a bevy of strong performances in their first game since trading star center DeMarcus Cousins.

After a back - and - forth start the Bulls amassed a 10 - point lead early in the third, but the Kings responded by outscoring Chicago 38 - 25, to gain their first lead with 8:40 left in the final quarter. The Bulls would not fold and kept pressing in order to grind out the victory at home, where they are now 24 - 12 this season. This marks the Bulls' third win in a row, a trend they will need to continue due to the close race for the bottom few spots in the East.

They totaled 28 assists on 41 field goals, with five players scoring in double figures. The Bulls limited themselves to nine turnovers and forced a whopping 20 turnovers by Sacramento. Taj Gibson and Derrick Rose both tallied 18 points, while Pau Gasol added 11 points, 14 rebounds, three assists and three blocks.

Faried had an unusually strong performance, hitting 10 of 16 shots from the field and leading the Nuggets in scoring. Rookie Nikola Jokic also played a huge part in the Denver win, scoring 20 points and grabbing nine boards while dishing out three assists. The rookie has played few minutes thus far this season, but has shown signs of high potential, as evidenced by his strong showing on Tuesday. 30 points from Carmelo Anthony was not enough for the Knicks to secure a win, as no other starter reached double digits in scoring. Melo hit all of his 11 free - throws while going 9 - for - 18 from the floor, putting the team on his shoulders in an otherwise sloppy performance by the struggling Knicks. Anthony also led the team in rebounding with seven and assists with four, in what was an impressive individual showing.

New York will face the Suns on Wednesday, while Denver will also take on the Suns this Thursday.

The Miami Heat defeated the Charlotte Hornets, 97 - 90, in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference first - round playoffs to even the series 3 - 3 on Friday at Time Warner Cable Arena. In a must win game, Dwyane Wade showed up big time. Not only did Wade hit two huge shots late, he made the game sealing block on Kemba Walker in the final seconds. Miami's defense was key, as they held Charlotte to 42 percent shooting from the field and 29 percent from three - point range. The rebounding was a big difference as well, with the Heat snatching down 46 boards to the Hornets 31. The Heat had everything to play for in this Game 6 do or die and they left it all on the floor. Wade was the star, as he finished the game with 23 points, six rebounds, four assists and three blocks in the win. Luol Deng provided 21 points and four rebounds of his own. Hassan Whiteside tallied 12 points, seven rebounds and four blocks before prematurely fouling out. The Hornets had a prime opportunity to win a playoff series in their home building, but couldn’t get much help outside Kemba Walker. The star point guard scored a game - high 37 points, while also recording three rebounds and five assists. Al Jefferson was the only player to score more than 12, as he collected 18 points and nine rebounds in the loss. The other three starters combined for just nine points, with seven of those coming from Frank Kaminsky.

The Hornets had lost four games in a row after starting the season 8 - 3. They have now won their last two games thanks in large part to the explosive play of a now - healthy Jeremy Lamb, who scored 21 points and grabbed nine rebounds in the team's win over Memphis on Monday night. In his two games since making a full return to the Hornets' rotation, Lamb has posted a total of 39 points and 26 rebounds, which included a career - high 17 rebounds in their win over the Knicks. Impressive rebounding has n't been a key part of Lamb's game either, as the nine rebounds he recorded against the Grizzlies would have matched the second - highest rebounding total of his career. Above all, Lamb now gives a Charlotte bench that was already averaging 38 points per game - - the eighth highest average in the league - - an added punch of offense and a legitimate reserve backcourt player after they've been shuffling through some underwhelming talent at both shooting guard and point guard.

The Dallas Mavericks (9 - 4) continued thier hot start to the season and grabbed their sixth win in a row Friday night as they beat the Utah Jazz (6 - 6) 102 - 93. It was a close game but Dallas' 35 - 17 second quarter gave them a big enough cushion to be able to maintain the lead for the whole second half. Utah was led by Gordon Hayward who finished with 22 points, seven rebounds and four assists. Hayward shot a strong 8 - 14 from the field and 2 - 4 from deep. Derrick Favors had another big night for the Jazz with 18 points on 9 - 14 shooting, seven rebounds and two assists. Rudy Gobert was looking healthy in his third game back after being out with an ankle injury. Gobert tallied 12 rebounds and eight points in 35 minutes. Alec Burks did not shoot well, going 4 - 14 and 1 - 5 from deep, but went 6 - 6 from the free - throw line and finished with 15 points in 30 minutes off the bench. The Jazz as a team had a meagre 14 assists on 35 made field goals. Dirk Nowitzki had lots of help from his teammates but that did not stop him from putting in work of his own against the agile Utah big men on Friday night. Dirk finished with 19 points on efficient 8 - 12 shooting, including 3 - 3 from long range; he also had four rebounds, two assists and three blocks in 32 minutes. Deron Williams led the Mavs in scoring with 23 points, on 7 - 13 shooting, along with eight assists, six rebounds and three steals. Zaza Pachulia is still getting it done as he put up a formidable 15 points and 12 rebounds in 38 minutes for the Mavericks. Dirk and Zaza have to be one of the oldest starting front - courts in the league but that has not seemed to be a problem so far this season.

The Oklahoma City Thunder earned a down - to - the - wire win over the San Antonio Spurs, 95 - 91, on Tuesday at AT & T Center, taking a 3 - 2 series lead in the Western Conference semifinals. Thunder point guard Russell Westbrook took control in Game 5, offering up late - game heroics to seal the deal and cap off a 35 - point, 11 - rebound, 9 - assist night. Westbrook was a major part of OKC's impressive effort on the boards, offering four of the Thunder's 15 offensive boards and contributing to the team's 54 - 36 overall rebounding advantage. Also impressing, per usual, was former MVP and superstar Kevin Durant, who offered 23 points, six rebounds, and five assists. Despite the key win and a big night for the dynamic duo, the Thunder struggled mightily with turnovers, coughing the ball up 20 times while forcing just seven turnovers on the defensive end. Regardless, the Thunder now have a chance to close out the series against the 67 - win Spurs in OKC in Game 6. For the Spurs, a more balanced approach built the team's offensive output, with three players scoring 20 points or more. All-Star and Defensive Player of the Year Kawhi Leonard led the team with 26 points while also nabbing five steals on the defensive end. Sharpshooter Danny Green, meanwhile, busted out of a slump to deliver 20 points on an impressive 7 - for - 10 shooting. While the Spurs' young stars shined brightly, the veteran "big 3" of Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobili, and Tony Parker combined for just 17 points on 6 - of - 22 shooting from the field. The team also struggled to crash the glass, with no one reaching double - digit rebounding on the night. Game 6 will see the Thunder return to Chesapeake Energy Arena with a chance to close out the series at home.

The Pistons exploded for 60 points in the first half to take a 12 point lead into the locker room. Toronto's Kyle Lowry gave it a go to start the game, but his back spasms flared back up and he was forced from the game. The Raptors went on a run and briefly took the lead in the fourth quarter until Reggie Jackson's free throws gave the Pistons the advantage. The Pistons and Raptors split the season series at two games apiece. Toronto made a game of it despite Lowry's injury, but could n't close it out for the win.

The Toronto Raptors (27 - 15) defeated the Boston Celtics (22 - 21) 115 - 109 in a game full of momentum swings Wednesday night. In a battle between two stout defenses, guarding your opponent became an optional aspect of this game. Not only did both teams shoot over 50 percent from the field, both squads nearly reached the century mark to start the fourth quarter. The two teams defensive natures took over after that though, as they combined for just 38 points in the final 12 minutes. It was truly a game of swings and that's evident by the box score. The Raptors won the first quarter 35 - 27 and the third quarter 40 - 28. The only reason the Celtics hung around is because they won the second quarter 35 - 21. Those are just bizarre scores from quarter - to - quarter and both coaches must've needed heavy doses of Ibuprofen after a game like this. The starting units are what made the difference for the Raptors, as they outscored the Celtics starting - five 90 - 62. This result is indicative of where this Celtics team is right now, as they are on the border of being a contender, but haven’t quite hurdled over that hump yet. Isaiah Thomas has been the teams best player this season and while he had the best night of any Boston player on Wednesday, he made two crucial turnovers late that ultimately helped the Raptors get their win. With that said, those were his only two turnovers on the night while recording a 21 - point 10 - assist double - double. The second - unit was spectacular for Boston tonight and single - handedly kept them in the game, as Kelly Olynyk, Marcus Smart and Evan Tuner all had at least six points, four rebounds and four assists in the defeat with Olynyk leading the group by dropping 18 points. This was still a good showing from this Boston team and they continue to battle elite teams in difficult environments. Up next for the Celtics is another tough task against the Chicago Bulls on Friday. Toronto has quietly been taking care of business over recent weeks and they now sit in the two - seed in the East at the midpoint of the year. Much of that has to be credited to DeMar DeRozan, who had yet another great game here. DeRozan finished with 34 points and six assists while hitting some daggers in the final minutes to cap off the win. Jonas Valanciunas also had an impressive outing, as he went 9 - for - 9 from the field to accumulate 19 points and 12 rebounds in the win. Luis Scola also put in an 18 - point, five - rebound line and he's been a darkhorse hero for this team all season. Toronto will look to keep the momentum going on Friday in their next game against the reeling Miami Heat.

The Houston Rockets defeated the Utah Jazz, 111 - 102, on Saturday at Toyota Center. Despite the return of Patrick Beverly to the starting lineup, Eric Gordon is still finding ways to contribute. The veteran guard tallied a robust 37 minutes off the bench Saturday, parlaying them into a line of 20 points, seven rebounds, six assists and two steals. The minutes were actually the second - highest of the season for Gordon, while his scoring total marked only his third time over the 20 - point mark on the campaign. He impressively drained half of his eight three - point attempts to share the team lead with James Harden, helping the Rockets (8 - 5) to their fourth home win in five tries.

Sacramento did start this game up 110, but it was all downhill from there. While things tightened up in the middle quarters, Utah outscored Sacramento 26 - 8 in the fourth to pull away and eventually win by 20. Defense was key once again, as they held the Kings to 39 percent shooting and outrebounded them, 54 - 34.

Despite the game being close throughout the first half, Charlotte led for the entirety of the second half.

The Los Angeles Clippers (39 - 20) defeated the Brooklyn Nets (17 - 43) 105 - 95 at Staples Center on Monday. The backcourt proved to be the difference maker for the Clippers, as Chris Paul, Jamal Crawford and JJ Reddick found themselves grooving in the second half. Crawford’s 26 points was good enough to lead all scorers in the contest, as Los Angeles found success through their three guard lineup, which paired remarkably well with Paul Pierce at power forward and DeAndre Jordan dominating the paint. Paul completed a double - double with 23 points and 12 assists, while JJ Reddick went 3 - of - 5 from behind the arc and totaled 19 points. The combination of the three guard system caused frequent mismatches and opened up Crawford to get hot through iso plays. When the iso - ball became stagnant, Jordan found himself with an open lane to the rim multiple times, leading to 10 points and 10 rebounds. The Brooklyn Nets competed with the Clippers through three quarters of play, and constantly frustrated their opponent behind the play of Brook Lopez. The fourth quarter proved to be dire for the Nets, as they failed to register a basket for the first half of that final period, opening the door for the Clippers to finally pull away. Lopez finished with 25 points, 10 rebounds and four assists on 9 - of - 17 shooting to lead Brooklyn in the overmatched contest. Three Nets starters matched Lopez in double figures (Donald Sloan, Wayne Ellington and Bojan Bogdanovich). Ellington left the game early after suffering what might be a possible concussion after colliding with Jordan. The Clippers host the Oklahoma City Thunder (42 - 18) on Thursday, while the Nets play the second game of a back - to - back and stay in Los Angeles to face the Lakers (11 - 49) on Tuesday.

The visiting Washington Wizards took down the Los Angeles Lakers in a comeback win on Tuesday, 119 - 108. Washington (46 - 28) won its fourth straight game despite entering the fourth quarter with a double - digit deficit. The Wizards came back quickly, thanks in large part to strong play from star point guard John Wall. Wall continued his dominant season with 34 points, 14 assists, and four steals. Largely due to his offense, the Wizards were able to shoot over 51 percent from the field and scored 37 fourth - quarter points. The fourth quarter seemed to be the Wizards' territory on Tuesday, as they outscored LA 37 - 13 for the stunning comeback victory. Thanks to the win, Washington remains seated in third place in the Eastern Conference. Los Angeles (21 - 53) nearly pulled off a major upset but may be better off without it as they eye the upcoming draft lottery. The team simply fell apart late in the game, as their youthful lack of NBA experience began to show against one of the league's top teams. The star of the night for LA was sophomore point guard D'Angelo Russell, who has had even more opportunity to flourish since the Lakers parted ways with sixth man Lou Williams at the trade deadline. Russell had a big night and showed the skill that made him the draft's second pick, scoring 28 points and dishing out a team - high nine assists. The Wizards will stay in LA and play the Clippers on Wednesday, while the Lakers will visit Minnesota on Thursday.

The Hornets entered intermission on the wrong side of a 53 - 46 score, but their 39 - point surge in the third quarter essentially put the game out of reach. The backcourt duo of Kemba Walker and Nicolas Batum combined for 42 points on 14 - of - 29 shooting from the field, and Charlotte shot 49 percent overall from the field. Cody Zeller and Frank Kaminsky III also combined for 27 points in the absence of Roy Hibbert (knee). Richaun Holmes and Jahlil Okafor helped fill in for the resting Joel Embiid on Wednesday, combining for 23 points, although Philadelphia was nevertheless outrebounded by a 44 - 37 margin overall. Ersan Ilyasova provided a spark in his first game in a Sixers uniform with 14 points off the bench, but the visitors still managed just a 40 percent success rate from the field.

In Boston, Isaiah Thomas has been given the nickname "The King in the Fourth." On Monday, he showed why. The two - time All-Star scored 41, with 24 of those points coming in the fourth quarter.

The Utah Jazz (22 - 35) defeated the Denver Nuggets (20 - 38) 104 - 82 on Friday at the Pepsi Center in Denver. The Jazz got off to a quick start Friday, out - scoring the Nuggets 28 - 17 in the first quarter, while eventually taking a 50 - 34 lead at half. Along with the strong start, the Jazz also shot much better, going 57 percent from the field and 43 percent from the three - point line, while the Nuggets finished at just 33 percent from the floor and a meager 25 percent from deep. Despite turning the ball over 23 times, the Jazz made up for it with a 43 - 36 rebounding advantage. Leading the way for the Jazz was Derrick Favors, who went 7 - for - 10 from the field and 7 - for - 8 from the free throw line to finish with a team - high of 21 points, while adding 10 rebounds and three blocked shots as well. The double - double marked his second over his last three games, a stretch where he's averaged 16 points and 10 rebounds. Coming off the bench, Trey Burke was a huge factor in the win, scoring 19 points (8 - 12 FG, 3 - 4 3Pt), to go along with four assists and four steals in 23 minutes. He continues to be a great source of points off the bench, averaging 17 points over last five games. Despite turning the ball over seven times, Gordon Hayward had a solid overall effort. In just 26 minutes, he recorded 15 points (5 - 12 FG, 1 - 5 3Pt, 4 - 5 FT), five assists and two steals. He now boasts season averages of 20 ponts, 5 rebounds and 4 assists. Also off the bench, Rodney Hood posted an efficient 14 points (5 - 8 FG, 3 - 3 3Pt, 1 - 2 FT) in 19 minutes. Continuing his hot streak, Will Barton finished with a game - high of 22 points (8 - 15 FG, 1 - 3 3Pt, 5 - 6 FT), to go along with two assists off the bench in 31 minutes. He's been a fantastic producer for the Nuggets ever since joing them through a trade at the deadline, as he's now averaging 15 points and three rebounds in the four games since coming over. He did n't reach double figures once in his time with the Trail Blazers, so it's great to see him have so much success with more of an opportunity. Another strong contribution from the bench came from Kenneth Faried, who posted 12 points (4 - 9 FG, 4 - 4 FT) and eight rebounds. He missed Wednesday's game with a thumb injury, so the Nuggets decided to bring him off the bench in his return. The only other Nugget to reach double figures in points was Danilo Gallinari. In 25 minutes as a starter, he finished with 13 points (5 - 15 FG, 2 - 8 3Pt, 1 - 2 FT) and two steals. The Jazz's next game will be at home against the Milwuakee Bucks on Saturday, while the Nuggets will be at home against the New Orleans Pelicans on Sunday.

The Charlotte Hornets' (17 - 19) struggles continued Saturday, as they lost 97 - 83 to the Los Angeles Clippers (24 - 13).

The All-NBA and All-Defense guard was an issue for Charlotte on both ends, not only leading the Clippers in scoring but also holding opposing point guard Kemba Walker to just 4 - for - 16 from the floor. Charlotte big man Al Jefferson (meniscus) sat the contest out, allowing LA center DeAndre Jordan to have full control of the glass. Jordan posted a game - high 19 rebounds as well as two steals and four blocks. Charlotte, meanwhile, has fallen out of the Eastern Conference playoff picture after starting hot at 10 - 5.

Lin exploded for 26 points, four rebounds, and four assists. The strong effort was not enough, however, to trump the surging Clippers. Charlotte's luck could take a turn for the better on Sunday, as they take on the struggling Nuggets.

The All-Star small forward regained his stroke Thursday, albeit in defeat, pouring in 25 points, despite still struggling somewhat from the field on 10 - for - 27 shooting. The Hawks capitalized on strong scoring nights from stalwarts Jeff Teague and Al Horford, and a gritty double - double effort from Paul Millsap at power forward. Millsap hauled in 11 boards to go along with his 11 points, which were not easy to come by on a night where his accuracy from the field was subpar.

Dennis Schroder provided his usual infusion of offense off the bench, totaling 13 points in just over 18 minutes on the court. The Hawks evened their record at 1 - 1 and currently reside in second place in the Eastern Conference’s Southeastern Division. Atlanta heads home to face off against the Charlotte Hornets on Friday.

Rookie Kristaps Porzingis followed up a strong 16 - point, five - rebound opener with a respectable 10 points, eight boards, and three steals.

The New Orleans Pelicans (39 - 34) defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves (16 - 57), 110 - 88, on Sunday at the Smoothie King Center. New Orleans needed to take advantage of Sunday's favorable matchup in order to keep its playoff hopes alive, and that's exactly what it did. The short - handed Timberwolves simply did n't have enough talent available to hang with the Pelicans. Anthony Davis turned in another strong outing with 28 points, nine rebounds, and five assists over 37 minutes. The Pelicans are now two games behind the Thunder for the final playoff spot in the West. Minnesota was already missing Kevin Martin, Kevin Garnett, Nikola Pekovic, and Ricky Rubio for this game, and things got worse when Gorgui Dieng had to leave the game with a facial contusion. Dieng was held scoreless in nine minutes before exiting the contest. Robbie Hummel returned from a 29 - game absence due to a broken hand and finished with six points in 18 minutes off the bench. The Timberwolves will look to end their three game losing streak Monday when they host the Jazz. New Orleans took care of business Sunday, but a tough stretch awaits it starting Saturday. The Pelicans will start a three game road trip Wednesday against the Lakers and will then take on the Kings on Friday. From there, the Pelicans play the Trail Blazers, Warriors, Grizzlies, and Suns in a crucial stretch. Sunday's game was a solid all - around effort by the Pelicans, who shot 57 percent from the floor and will look to continue that sort of efficiency Wednesday against the Lakers.

Milwaukee was expected to win this game rather easily and a wire - to - wire win would just confirm that notion. In fact, the Bucks took a 12 - point lead after the first quarter, as the game never got within seven points after that. Rebounding was the key for the Bucks, winning that battle, 46 - 27. Milwaukee was also unconscious shooting the ball, as they hit 50 percent from the field and 60 percent from three - point range. Hassan Whiteside and Goran Dragic tied the team - lead with 19 points apiece for the Heat. James Johnson was huge off the bench for Miami, accruing 10 points and 12 assists. Giannis Antetokounmpo was the Bucks best player, accumulating 19 points, eight rebounds and six assists on 8 - of - 12 shooting. Jabari Parker led the team in scoring, dropping 24 points to go along with five boards. Greg Monroe recorded a double - double off the bench, totaling 16 points and 11 rebounds.

The Memphis Grizzlies (20) defeated the Indiana Pacers (1 - 1) 97 - 89 on Friday at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. Starting shooting guard Courtney Lee was forced to leave the game after he was kneed in the back of his head while on the ground during a scrum under the hoop. Lee suffered a mild concussion and will likely have to undergo the league's concussion protocol testing, which could lead to him missing some games going forward. Tayshaun Prince, who did n't get off the bench in the Grizzlies' first game, started the second half in Lee's place. The Pacers are trying to stay afloat despite all of the injuries they've had to start the season. George Hill (knee) is still two weeks from returning; C.J. Watson (foot) will likely be out at least another week; and David West (ankle) has n't been cleared for practice, meaning he may miss more than the three games he was originally projected to sit out. The Pacers were considered a fringe playoff team before those three players fell prey to injuries, and if the team continues to have injury issues pile up, it'll be hard for their backups to overcome powerhouses like Memphis. The Grizzlies' next game is on the road Saturday against the Charlotte Hornets. The Pacers' next game is on the road Saturday against the Atlanta Hawks.

The Pacers were expected to win this game rather easily and they did n't let up against a struggling Nets team. Brooklyn actually held a lead late in the second quarter, but Indiana followed that up with a 33 - 11 run to open up things up. The Pacers dominated in the paint, winning that differential, 52 - 30. Jeff Teague, Myles Turner and Paul George all played well for the Pacers, as they outscored the Nets starters, 72 - 48. George led the team with 26 points and three steals, while Teague accumulated 21 points, seven rebounds and 15 assists. Turner recorded a monster double - double, totaling 25 points, 15 rebounds and five blocks. Justin Hamilton and Trevor Booker tied the team - lead for the Nets, scoring 16 points a piece.

The Hornets (31 - 42) defeated the Pistons (29 - 45) 102 - 78 at Time Warner Cable Arena on Wednesday.

The Hornets jumped out to an eight - point lead in the first quarter, one they extended to 11 points by halftime. In the fourth quarter, the Hornets outscored the Pistons 29 - 16 to complete the rout. The Hornets shared the love, with six players scoring in double digits. Marvin Williams was the Hornets' leading scorer with 18 points (7 - 11 FG, 3 - 6 3Pt), to go with six rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block in 29 minutes. Kemba Walker had 17 points (7 - 13 FG, 2 - 2 3Pt), nine rebounds, three assists and four blocks in 33 minutes. Mo Williams (knee) contributed 13 points (6 - 16 FG, 1 - 4 3Pt), two rebounds, six assists and one steal in 25 minutes. Al Jefferson (knee) played through the pain, putting up 11 points (4 - 12 FG), to go with nine rebounds, three assists and four blocks in 26 minutes. The Pistons leading scorer, Jodie Meeks, came off the bench. He had 15 points (6 - 13 FG, 1 - 4 3Pt) and five rebounds in 34 minutes. Andre Drummond had 13 points (6 - 15 FG), nine rebounds and two steals in 28 minutes. Reggie Jackson only recorded nine points (3 - 16 FG, 1 - 4 3Pt), but he did have seven rebounds and eight assists in 29 minutes. Jackson, whose production has fallen off over the last two games, is battling an illness. Wednesday's win was crucial for the Hornets, who have struggled down the stretch. They're currently eleventh in the Eastern Conference, 2 games behind the eighth - place Nets. The Pistons are now five games behind the Nets in the East, and their playoff chances look bleak. The Hornets lead the season series with the Pistons 2 - 1. They will play once more on Apr. 10.

The Utah Jazz defeated the Houston Rockets 120 - 101 at Vivint Smart Home Arena on Tuesday. The Jazz (11 - 8) found two big performances from two of their best players in Gordon Hayward and Rudy Gobert, but also suffered a blow when Rodney Hood injured his right hamstring after logging 19 points in 20 minutes of action. The high scoring affair got off to a quick start, but Hood's mid range jumper with just over four minutes remaining in the first quarter started a 14 - 7 jazz run to end the period with a nine point lead. The Rockets trailed by double figures for almost all of the remaining three quarters, save for a brief stint at the start of the second half. Hayward led the way with 31 points, seven assists and five rebounds, to go along with a trio of three pointers and an impressive 12 - of - 13 free throw shooting. Gobert added his 11th double - double of the season behind 16 points and 14 rebounds, in addition to three blocks on 5 - of - 7 shooting across 33 minutes. The Rockets (11 - 7) were led by James Harden and his 26 points, seven assists and five rebounds on 8 - of - 23 shooting, while Eric Gordon pitched in 24 points on 17 shots in 32 minutes off the bench.

The Los Angeles Lakers (7 - 27) defeated the Philadelphia 76ers (3 - 32) 93 - 84 on Friday night. In a battle of the two worst teams in the NBA, the less worse team prevailed. Philly's first win of the season came against the Lakers and it was evident Los Angeles wanted to return the favor in their home building. They played some of the best defense they've played all season, as they allowed just 84 points on 37 percent shooting. They also dominated the turnover battle, as the Sixers committed 16 turnovers while the Lakers committed just 10. Both teams shot under 38 percent from the field and they shot a combined 9 - for - 40 from long distance for an atrocious 23 percent. The Sixers have been a revived team recently, but couldn’t muster up much here. The worst offense in the NBA showed it's true colors tonight and couldn’t get anything going. The only player who played well was Nerlens Noel, who tallied 15 points, 12 rebounds, three assists, three steals and three blocks in the loss. T.J. McConnell also had a solid game off the bench, as he amassed 12 points, seven assists and four rebounds. Jahlil Okafor came off the bench here once again and it may be time to re - insert him into the starting - five, considering he is the best offensive player on this team. The Sixers will have a tough task on Saturday, as they'll have to play the Los Angeles Clippers in the second half of a back - to - back set. The Lakers played this game without Kobe Bryant and it was one of their best games of the season. The bench brought in some great energy, as all four players grabbed at least three rebounds and combined for an impressive 10 steals. Lou Williams was the star of the night though, as he contributed 24 points, five assists and four rebounds in the win. Larry Nance Jr. also had a nice game, as he set a career - high with 14 rebounds in the victory. This isn’t a great win by any means, but it's definitely something for them to build off of going forward. The Lakers will take on the Phoenix suns on Sunday in their next game.

The Knicks came into this game as a two - point favorite, as they took care of business to win their seventh game in their last nine. Defense was key, as they held Sacramento to 32 percent shooting from both the field and from three - point range. DeMarcus Cousins put up a huge line in the defeat, as tallied 36 points, 12 rebounds, four assists and three blocks. Rudy Gay also stuffed the stat sheet, accumulating 22 points, nine rebounds, four assists and three steals. The issue was their inefficiency, as they combined to go just 16 - of - 48 from the field. Matt Barnes had a nightmare shooting game off the bench as well, scoring two points on 1 - of - 11 shooting. Carmelo Anthony and Derrick Rose tied the team - lead in scoring, dropping 20 points a piece. Kristaps Porzingis was the Knicks best player though, accruing 15 points, 14 rebounds and four blocks.

Anthony Davis continues to be the only sign of offensive life on this banged - up New Orleans Pelicans team. On Monday night he scored 33 points - - nearly one - third of the team's 106 - point total. This has been a trend this season, as while Davis has managed to average 30 points per game to start the season, his team is averaging just 101 points. That is 30 percent of his team's total points, and while the overall numbers Davis is putting up are impressive, they are n't translating to wins. In fact, they are n't coming close, and with the next highest per - game average Tim Frazier's 13 points per game, Davis will desperately need some help offensively going forward if the Pelicans want to notch a single victory. For the Warriors' Stephen Curry, his 76 percent (13 - of - 17) shooting performance from three - point land was his highest mark when shooting at least 10 treys since he shot 12 - of - 16 (75 percent) in a thriller last season against the Oklahoma City Thunder. That game was also when he tied the single - game record for three - pointers made - - a record which he broke Monday night.

In the 13 games prior to Wednesday night LaMarcus Aldridge played at least 30 minutes, he never failed to score less than 10 points. In fact, Aldridge scored less than 10 points while playing at least 30 minutes just twice in all of last season. Wednesday night against the Mavericks, Aldridge notched his lowest scoring total - - five points - - since joining San Antonio, and he did so in 32 minutes of playing time. And while Wednesday's struggle does not indicate the season Aldridge has had so far, as he is still averaging 18 points and 7 rebounds. Those numbers, however, are still subpar by Aldridge's standards, as after averaging at least 21 points and eight rebounds in five straight years with Portland, the power forward's numbers have dipped to 18 points and under seven rebounds per game. With Tim Duncan retired and gone, the Spurs will need Aldridge to channel the player he was in Portland if they want a chance to compete in the Western Conference again.

The Los Angeles Clippers defeated the Portland Trail Blazers, 114 - 106, at Moda Center on Thursday. The Clippers (10) were the last team to tip off for an opening game amongst the league and capped it off with an impressive road win. The matchup continued where Los Angeles left off at the end of last season's first - round playoffs, save for a fully healthy unit and one that was in a physical mentality throughout the game. DeAndre Jordan and Mason Plumlee got into a scrap after a hard foul landed both in the courtside seats beneath the rim in the third quarter, while C.J. McCollum returned a hard foul Jordan's way at the other end of the floor in the fourth quarter. The referring was also in question at times, much to the home crowd's disapproval, as Blake Griffin and JJ Reddick had flagrant fouls go there way in the second half. The back - and - forth affair was tight knit through the first three quarters of play, but the Clippers were able to pull away by 15 points with 2:54 left in the fourth quarter. A series of inspired plays from Harkless, McCollum and Lillard cut the lead to five after a driving layup from the star point guard with :22 left on the clock. Paul drew a foul from Shabazz Napier on the ensuing possession to ice the game at the free throw line. Chris Paul and Blake Griffin led the Clippers, as both players were everywhere on both ends of the court, striking from the mid range, putting back dunks, running down the Blazers backcourt in transition and keeping Reddick and Jordan active at the perimeter and under the rim. Paul and Griffin combined for 54 points, 18 rebounds and five assists in the win. Lillard poured in 29 points on 11 - of - 24 shooting, to go along with 10 rebounds and three assists. Harkless, Plumlee and McCollum joined Lillard in double figures, but the 22 percent three - point shooting was far from where coach Terry Stotts would have liked the Blazers to be on their home court. The Blazers will visit the Denver Nuggets on Saturday, while the Clippers play their first home game hosting the Utah Jazz on Sunday.

The Washington Wizards defeated the Milwaukee Bucks, 110 - 105, at Verizon Center on Saturday. The dynamic duo of John Wall and Bradley Beal has been leading the Wizards' successes all season, and Saturday was no different. John Wall and Bradley Beal combined for 44 points to lead Washington (9 - 13) its seventh home win. The Bucks (11 - 11) jumped on their hosts early, building a 32 - 23 lead after one quarter. The Wizards made up that deficit in the second quarter, and the two teams entered halftime knotted up at 52. The stellar performance from their guards helped overcome a typically spectacular one from Milwaukee's Giannis Antetokunmpo, who filled out the stat sheet with 28 points, 13 rebounds and seven assists. Despite the defeat, the Bucks had the collective hot hand throughout the night, posting 51 and 52 percent success rates from the field and three - point range, respectively. Mirza Teletovic was Milwaukee's second - leading scorer and accomplished the feat from the bench, posting 25 points, three rebounds an a block over 26 minutes on 8 - of - 12 shooting, including 5 - of - 6 from the beyond the arc. John Henson was the only other member of the starting five with double - digit scoring, supplying 14 points (on 70 percent shooting), four rebounds and two blocks. Jabari Parker (eight points, four rebounds) and Matthew Dellavedova (six points, four assists, two rebounds) underwhelmed, but Malcolm Brogdon was strong in a reserve role with 11 points, two assists and a steal. Wall paced the Wizards with 24 points, 11 assists, four rebounds, two steals and a block. Beal followed with 20 points and six assists. Markieff Morris was strong down low, registering 15 points, nine rebounds, three assists, three steals and a block. Otto Porter, Jr. turned in another modest performance, going for 10 points, two steals, a rebound and an assist.

Marcin Gortat contributed nine points but hauled in 14 boards. The Bucks head north of the border to take on the Toronto Raptors on Monday night, while the Wizards head down to South Florida to take on the Miami Heat on Monday evening as well.

The Boston Celtics (8 - 7) defeated the Philadelphia 76ers (0 - 16) 84 - 80 on Wednesday in yet another late - game collapse for Philly.. The Sixers played very well in this game, but choked it away late to extend their horrible losing - streak. The Celtics ended the game on an 18 - 3 run over the last six minutes and that's the Sixers season in a nutshell. Both teams shot poorly in this game, as they both shot below 38 percent from the field. This definitely was n't a pretty game by any means, but Boston fans will be happy that they were n't the ones to allow that first elusive win to the Sixers. The Sixers usually lose games early, but when it's close at the end, they do n't know how to finish games either. It's a sad reality for a team in a deep hole, but losses like these still have to be looked at positively. They were ahead for the majority of the second half and it was still one of their best performances of the year, despite the loss. Jahlil Okafor once again led the team in scoring, as he tallied 19 points and 11 rebounds in the defeat. He is definitely a major bright spot in a dark tunnel and Philly fans can be somewhat hopeful for the future with his strong play this season. Philadelphia will look to crack this losing - streak when they take on the struggling Houston Rockets on Friday. The Celtics played poorly on Wednesday, but somehow escaped with a win. Only two Boston players scored more than 10 points in this game and they were lucky to grab a win in such a poor performance. Despite the struggles, Isaiah Thomas had a great game, totaling 30 points, six assists and four rebounds in the victory. Evan Turner also had a nice game off the bench, as he collected 16 points, nine rebounds and three assists. Jared Sullinger also snatched 15 boards, so it was n't all bad for Boston. The gritty nature to go on a big run and pull out a win like this late can be a huge momentum booster for a young team. They'll host a Washington Wizards team on Friday, who are coming off one of the biggest chokes of the season as well, as they scored six points in the fourth quarter in Wednesday's loss to the Charlotte Hornets..

While these teams are playing below expectations, they put on a show in this game, There were 10 ties and 11 lead changes in total, as neither team led by more than 11 points.

Wall finished with 30 points, six rebounds and eight assists, while Beal totaled 29 points and four steals. Goran Dragic was in foul trouble for the majority of the game, but still accumulated a season - high 34 points, five rebounds and five assists in 31 minutes of play.

In a battle of the Eastern Conference's bottom two teams, the Brooklyn Nets (19 - 48) defeated the Philadelphia 76ers (9 - 58) 131 - 114 behind a career - high 44 points from Bojan Bogdanovic. Guard Bojan Bogdanovic came out of seemingly nowhere with one of the year's most impressive performances, dropping 44 points on 17 - for - 27 shooting. The shooting guard hit four three - pointers and was fouled only three times, getting most of his work done from inside the arc. With the lights - out shooting night, Bogdanovic not only sets a personal career high, but ties the career high of his childhood hero, All-Star Drazen Petrovic. Despite the can't - miss night, the Euro star remained unselfish to the very end, even making room for big man Brook Lopez to hit a rare three - pointer. All in all, the win came in emphatic fashion for the Nets, who seemed unfazed by Philly fans' taunting changts of "we've got draft picks." The team shot 52 percent from the field on the night and 87 percent at the line, easily securing one of their biggest wins of the season. The Sixers still sit at single - digits in the win column, despite no longer being at risk for setting a record - low in wins. Even facing one of the league's most helpless teams, Philadelphia was unable to come particularly close, allowing the lead to rocket up to 20 by halftime. While all five starters scored in double - digits, foul trouble from standout center Nerlens Noel coupled with turnover issues made it difficult for the Sixers to get things going. There was a lone bright spot, however, in sophomore Nik Stauskas. "Sauce Castillo" scored 18 points off the bench, knocking down a couple three - pointers and recording seven rebounds as well. Overall, though, Philadelphia was handily blown out at the hands of their division rival. Philadelphia will take on the Washington Wizards on Tuesday, while the Nets will face the Bulls in Chicago.

The Houston Rockets defeated the Denver Nuggets, 109 - 105, at Pepsi Center on Saturday. There have been some lopsided matchups between these teams recently, but this one was incredibly close. In fact, there were 16 ties and 11 lead changes, with neither team capturing a double - digit lead.

The Golden State Warriors (170) shot the lights out against the Phoenix Suns (7 - 9), defeating them 135 - 116 on Friday. There are some nights when a team just ca n't miss and that becomes even scarier when it's the Warriors. Golden State went an incredible 22 - 38 from three - point range and shot 57 percent from the field in this game. They also outrebounded the Suns 53 - 30 and it was a mismatch on all cylinders. That now give Golden State 17 straight wins and it's an incredible thing to watch at this point. Some experts thought this would be the game the Warriors historic streak would end, but they are eating their words now. Golden State simply shot the Suns out of the building and ended this contest well before the final whistle. The Warriors won the first quarter 44 - 27 and never looked back after that. Steph Curry had another ridiculous game, as he tallied 41 points, eight assists and six rebounds in just three quarters of play. He also went 9 - for - 16 from long distance and was embarrassing Phoenix players all night long. Draymond Green also recorded a triple - double in the game and he's been one of the unheralded hero's of this undefeated team. Luckily, the starters got quite a bit of rest here, as they'll have to play on Saturday in the second half of a back - to - back against the Sacramento Kings. The Suns actually played well offensively in this game, but you ca n't allow 135 points and win. Phoenix shot a robust 49 percent, but could n't stop this potent offense a lick. That's been the problem all season for the Suns, as they rank in the bottom - five in points allowed. Much of that can be credited to their ridiculously high - pace, but they need to play some defense to win. T.J. Warren was a major bright spot off the bench though, as he amassed a career - high 28 points, six rebounds and two assists in the loss. This was a tough game for Phoenix, but it's one of those that you can just simply tip your cap and move on. They'll look to bounce - back against the Toronto Raptors on Sunday in their next scheduled game.

Outside of Khris Middleton's team - high 26 points, the other four starters managed solid but unspectacular totals, and Milwaukee received a paltry 10 points from their bench over the 61 total minutes tallied by the reserves. Middleton's scoring haul represented a season - high for the shooting guard, whose previous best was the 21 points he'd posted on four different occasions.

They did n't get much else from their starters, as Kyle Lowry and Luis Scola were next behind DeRozan with a pair of 12 - point efforts. The total represented a season - low figure for Lowry, who struggled considerably with his shot and drained only five of 16 attempts. Cory Joseph continued his trend of strong showings off the bench, pacing the Raptors reserves with 13 points, three rebounds, three assists, three steals and a block. Toronto improved to 15 - 9 and remains in first place in the Eastern Conference's Atlantic Division. They will face the one - win Philadelphia 76ers in Toronto on Sunday.
