By Eurohoops team/ info@eurohoops.net

Lauri Markkanen scored 20 and the Utah Jazz got the road win over the San Antonio Spurs 111-110, overcoming 24 points, 16 rebounds, and seven blocks from Victor Wembanyama.

The French became the first player in the NBA’s history to record multiple games of 20+ points, 15+ rebounds, 5+ blocks, and 5+ made 3-pointers, still, it was not enough.

The Finish forward on the other side stayed in the game after landing directly on his left hip with 2:44 remaining. He was down on the court for a few minutes before and was hobbling noticeably in the final minutes.

The Bulls beat Atlanta with Montenegrin big man Nikola Vucevic adding 18 points and 12 rebounds for the winners,  while Swiss center Clint Capela scored 20 for the Hawks.

The Cavs remain perfect after beating the Nets and Croatian center Ivica Zubac had 14 points and 12 rebounds in the Clippers win over Toronto.
