Orlando Magic 119 (37-26) @ Washington Wizards 109 (9-53)

Wizards collapse in the last few minutes of the fourth quarter which was otherwise a close game, after the Wizards lost their 20+ point lead. Magic got back in the game with a strong performance from Paolo who scored 13 in the third and Mo Wagner who scored 14 in the fourth. Magic are picking it up at the right time being 8-2 in the last 10 games.

Los Angeles Clippers 122 (40-21) @ Houston Rockets 116 (27-35)

Fourth quarter Kawhi showed up this game and led them to the win in a game where they were down for 45 of the 48 game minutes.

Memphis Grizzlies 115 (22-41) @ Philadelphia 76ers 109 (35-27)

76ers are slipping heading into the playoffs without Joel Embiid and the grizzlies aren't making playoffs. Strong game from Jaren Jackson Jr who put up 30 points and grabbed 11 rebounds. 76ers have only won 6 games out of their last 20 so yeah they're in a bit of trouble.

Cleveland Cavaliers 101 (40-22) @ Atlanta Hawks 112 (28-34)

Nice win for the Hawks here who lost their 21 point lead but closed the game strong. Back to back wins for them now as they fight for position in the standings for the play-in.

Chicago Bulls 119 (30-32) @ Utah Jazz 117 (28-35)

This was a fun game between two pretty mid teams. Jazz were dealing with injuries to some of their main players so it was a great performance from the role players who stepped up to keep them in the game. DeMar DeRozan led the game with 29 points as he led the Bulls to squeeze out the win.

Oklahoma City Thunder 128 (43-19) @ Portland Trail Blazers 120 (17-42)

I thought this game was going to be a blowout but the Blazers were kind of in it throughout the game, with the Thunder's biggest lead being only 16 and that was only for a minute or two. The Thunder just keep on winning as they're tied for the first seed in the Western Conference again with the Wolves.

Milwaukee Bucks 90 (41-22) @ Golden State Warriors 125 (33-28)

Warriors came out swining in this game after an embarrassing loss to the Celtics on Sunday. Big minutes from the young guys Kuminga, Podziemski, and Jackson-Davis helped blow the lead open with their quickness and second chances. Curry topped it off by leading the game in points by scoring 29.

Sacramento Kings 130 (35-26) @ Los Angeles Lakers 120 (34-30)

Great performance from Sabonis and Fox tonight who outworked the Lakers and got to every spot they wanted, every shot they wanted, and every rebound they wanted. It's clear that AD has trouble with these bigger centers like Sabonis and Jokic. Question from this game will be Lebron's health who left the game and went straight to the locker room with a limp. Crazy how the Lakers went up 19 to down 15 by halftime, after that they weren't able to get the comeback.
