The Celtics got an informal revenge for last year’s elimination in the Eastern Conference finals early in the morning, beating the Heat 119-111 in the “TD Garden”.
Derrick White (28), Jaylen Brown (27) and Jayson Tatum (22) combined for 77 points, helping Boston to its second NBA victory. Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis each had 17 points.
The protagonist of the victory (126-122) of the Spurs over the Rockets was Victor Webanyama, who with his own basket sent the game to overtime, knowing the apotheosis from the friends of San Antonio. The 2023 NBA Draft No. 1 made the first double-double on the other side of the Atlantic, having 21 points on 7/19 shooting (0/6 three-pointers), 7/8 shots, 12 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 steals and 3 blocks.
On his part, Luka Doncic gave his own show, who scored 49 points (7/11 two-pointers, 9/14 three-pointers, 8/10 shots), collected 10 rebounds, while he had 7 assists and zero (!) fouls in 36 minutes of play in the Mavericks’ 125-120 win over the Nets in Dallas.
