NBA: Klay Thompson secures Golden State Warriors the victory

The Golden State Warriors have resisted a late comeback attempt of Thunder and continued their winning streaks - thanks to Klay Thompson, which brings Oklahoma City to silence. The Heat and Suns dominate their opponents, even the Raptors are always winning.

Charlotte Hornets (28-27) - Toronto Raptors (29-23) 101: 116 (Boxscore)

  • A few hours before the game Lamelo Ball still had a fat grin on the face. The 20-year-old experienced on Monday that he may attend the All-Star Game as a recovery. Shortly after tip-off, however, this grin evoked relatively quickly, in the end, the fifth Hornets bankride was firmly stood in series, while the Raptors continued their strong run.
  • In the first half it was the Eastern Conference Player of the Week Pascal Siakam, who indicated the sound. Together with the remaining starters, he led the guests from Canada to an interim 23-point leadership. Although Charlotte made it exciting in the third quarter and shortened to -3, but the throwing problems made a comeback ultimately impossible.
  • Charlotte decreased only magere 9/40 threesome (22.5 percent), the field throwing rate in the final section was 33.3 percent. That was far too little. Terry Rozier had previously led his team with a total of 20 points in quickest distance, Miles Bridges (25, 6 rebounds and 5 assists) was Topscorer of the Hausrenren. Lamelo had such difficulties in scoring (15 points and 9 assists, 5/19 FG), but set a few highlights.
  • Meanwhile, the Raptors had quickly expanded two-digit in the fourth neighborhood and defended them to the end to the end of the sixth victory in a row. Siakam (24, 11 Rebounds and 8 Assists, 10/16 FG) and Gary Trent Jr. (24, 4/9 threesome) led their team, the starters achieved a total of 103 of the 116 Raptors counters. Fred Vanvleet and O.G. Anunoby reached 20, Scottie Barnes 15 points.

Washington Wizards (24-29) - Miami Heat (35-20) 100: 121 (Boxscore)

  • The closer the Trade Deadline backs, the more obvious it will be that something has to do in Washington. The Wizards collected against Miami the eighth bankruptcy from the past nine games and were largely chanceless. The East leader, on the other hand, met more than 50 percent from the field and from the distance (18/32 threesome) and made a short process.
  • "We're just playing on an extremely high level. The energy is just there. It's good to get a victory abroad," Heat-Star Jimmy Butler was pleased. Already in the first quarter, the guests from Florida made clear, in which direction this game should go (+18), Bam Adebayo sat down in the third section against a comeback attempt of Wizards for Wehr and Miami finally made a quarter of cross-country 22: 1 Run everything clear.
  • Adebayo had a large proportion at the preliminary run towards the end of the third and at the beginning of the fourth quarter. The Big Man marked 14 of his 21 points in the third round, as a total, he sank 7/11 out of the field and also collected 7 rebounders and 4 assists. Butler was also highly efficiently 19 points (7/13 FG), Vincent (16 and 8 Assists, 4/6 Threesomes) and Caleb Martin (15) contributed good production from the bank.
  • ROOKIE COREY KISPERT introduced his career repair for the home owners (20, 9/15 FG), otherwise the Wizards delivered a lot of lean food. In contrast to the hot shoot of the Heat, Washington replaced only 7 of the 31 attempts from Downtown (22.6 percent), from the starters only Aaron Holiday (14) and Kuzma (12, but -35) KUZMA cracked the Double Digits.

Chicago Bulls (33-21) - Phoenix Suns (43-10) 124: 127 (Boxscore)

  • The result suggests a narrower game than it was actually. A (too late) comeback of Bulls reservists in the garbage Time made a lot more or less exciting, which actually seemed to decide after the second quarter in favor of the West Primus. First of all, Devin Booker had taken care of.
  • The 25-year-old rushed fire hot, did not bring himself from Benny The Bull from rest and scored in the first half of 22 points at 8/10 out of the field. In the second quarter, however, it was a strong team performance that brought the Suns a 17: 3 run. The projection grew to 21, in the third quarter even up to 27 points.
  • Booker finally ended the game with 38 counters (14/23 FG, 5/10 threesome), in addition, he got wide support. Chris Paul put a double-double on (19 and 11 assists), just like Ja Crowder (10 and 10 Boards, including 6 assists). Mikal Bridges (15), Deandre Ayton (13 and 9) or Javale Mcgee (16, 8 rebounds and 3 blocks) helped in all areas of the game.
  • 1:41 minutes before the end, Phoenix was still with 15 points in front, so Bulls-Coach Billy Donovan headed the garbage Time. The used Two-Way player Malcolm Hill, who scored the last 8 points for Chicago, including a buzzer-beater, and thus results cosmetics operation. Previously, Demarozan (38, 16/27 FG) and returnees Zach Lavine (32 and 8 assists) were the dominant figures at the bulls. But the defense could not keep up, Phoenix met a total of 54.4 percent out of the field. Against the top 5 teams of the league Chicago is now at a balance sheet of 0-7.
