Gobert Record equaled <\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
\n

Minnesota, carried by a Rudy Gobert in fire, on the attack (35 points, equal personal record) as in defense (11 rebounds, including 8 defensive), won against the Nets of Brooklyn (117-91). Golden State, easy winner in Portland (103-86) and the Clippers, victorious from a small sacramento point (101-100), for a seventh consecutive success, continue to hang before the last game of the regular season on Sunday. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Oklahoma, already assured of first place to the west, easily beat Utah Jazz 145-111, despite the absence of his best marker, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, competitor of Jokic for the title of MVP. Aaron Wiggins (35 points) and Isaiah Joe (32 points) brilliantly supplemented him in this one -way match.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The defeat of the Indiana Pacers against Orlando Magic (129-115), however, allows Knicks to keep their 3rd place.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Pelicans are disillusioned <\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
\n

The New Orleans Pelicans underwent the heaviest defeat in their story in the regular season, laminated 153-104 by the Miami Heat. Bam Adebayo, in just 22 minutes, signed 23 points and 12 rebounds, leading an intractable Miami team.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
