Fultz scored 10 points and had eight assists in his first game since October, helping the Philadelphia 76ers beat the Denver Nuggets 123-104. Croatian Dario Saric scored 20 points for the winning side, while Serb Nikola Jokic had 14 points and seven rebounds. The Sixers climbed to the fourth spot of the East after this result.
Spaniard Marc Gasol had 20 points, 10 rebounds and six assists, helping the Grizzlies deal a blow to Minnesota’s playoff hopes. The 101-93 win of Memphis can prove to be devastating for the Timberwolves who dropped to the eight sport of the West standings and dropped to 6-7 since All-Star Jimmy Butler was lost to a knee injury.
Here’s last night’s result and the euro-scorers.
