Sacramento Kings – Dallas Mavericks : 106-120
“Defense saves titles“, hammered the GM Nico Harrison to justify the transfer of Luka Doncic. If it is obviously more complex than that, the Mavericks gave him at least reason for an evening. Anthony Davis and his teammates extinguished the Kings, limited to 106 points, to offer himself a chance to qualify for the playoffs. Superstar by scoring 27 points in addition to its 9 rebounds and 3 blocks.
Sacramento held a quarter, the first, before collapsing completely once Dallas increased his level of intensity in the second. The players of Jason Kidd took control of the meeting by passing a 44-19 in 12 minutes to take shelter. In addition to Davis, Klay Thompson also showed the example to follow in 23 points to 8 out of 11 shots (5 of 7-point).
The Kings have never found the energy to make a run, especially in the face of the big defense of the Mavs. They also did not give the impression of really wanting to. There could be a change within the franchise during the offseason. There may also be some in Dallas but the Texans continue their journeys for the moment. They will play their place in the playoffs during an upcoming duel against Memphis on Friday evening.
Chicago Bulls – Miami Heat : 90-109
There was only one All-Star (among those named this season) on the prosecution last night in Chicago. A certain Tyler Herro. And he showed that he was indeed the best player of the evening. Miami's rear scored 38 points and the Heat won quite easily against the Bulls (90-109). He notably put 23 in the first half and his team had already taken off at the break (47-71).
The Heat was no longer joined later, even if the Bulls returned to 13 points in the fourth quarter, without really relaunching the suspense. Josh Giddey scored 25 points but Coby White only converted 5 of his 20 attempts. The Illinois franchise rested on the scoring of its two rear to finish the regular season loudly and it collided with the defense of Miami on Wednesday evening. Heat will therefore play the Hawks to hope to qualify again for the Playoffs. The Floridians left the play-in in the last two seasons, even up to the finals in 2023.
