The Milwaukee Bucks got their second straight win over the New York Knicks and Giannis Antetokounmpo once again put his signature on it.
The Greek Freak flirted with the triple-double by notching 31 points, 14 rebounds and eight assists as the Bucks beat the Knicks 112 – 96.
Enes Kanter had eight points and five rebounds while Frank Ntilikina posted five points and five boards. Mario Hezonja was once again a “DNP”.
Meanwhile, in Sacramento, Bogdan Bogdanovic showed once again why he’s pretty much one of the top European players in clutch time situations. Bogdanovic drained the buzzer beater to win the game vs.the Lakers, finishing with 23 points.
Fellow Serbian player Nemanja Bjelica added 18 points and six rebounds for the Kings. On the Lebron James-less Lakers‘ side, Svi Mykhaliuk stepped on the floor for some seconds.
The Philadelphia 76ers made short work of the Utah Jazz 114 – 97. Rudy Gobert had a double-double of 17 points plus 15 rebounds and also dished out five assists but Ricky Rubio struggled in his shooting with 1/10 from the field and just five points to go with his five boards and four assists.
In the game that concluded the night, Jusuf Nurkic scored a team-high 27 points and also grabbed 12 rebounds to immensely help the Blazers in an overtime 110 – 109 over the Golden State Warriors. The Bosnian big guy also helped his team force a turnover on Steph Curry for Dame Lillard to then win the match for Portland with a 3-point bucket.
