By Eurohoops team/ info@eurohoops.net

With the Utah Jazz attempting a late comeback, James Harden casually tossed an alley-oop to Clint Capela from just inside the halfcourt line for a thunderous dunk.

Harden had 31 points and 10 assists, and Swiss big man Capela scored a career-high 20 points and had also 8 rebounds and 5 assists to lead the Houston Rockets to a 111-102 victory over the Jazz on Saturday. For the losing side, French center Rudy Gobert had a double double (12 p., 14 r.).

In Milwaukee, the Warriors managed to get the 124-121 win over the Bucks. Kevin Durant scored 33 points, while Thompson had 25 of his 29 in the second half and Georgian center Zaza Pachulia added 4 points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists.

For the Bucks, Bosnian Mirza Teletovic scored 3 points, Jabari Parker had 28 points and Giannis Antetokounmpo put on a show with 30 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals, a big block over Draymond Green and a great spin move and after the game called out the fans of his team: “You feed off that energy. You need that as a team … Whoever believes in us and wants us to be great, hopefully they can come to the arena and watch us play.”
