An exciting night of NBA basketball was played out with seven games on the schedule after the Dallas Mavericks-New Orleans Pelicans duel was postponed.

Portland and Toronto’s clash was perhaps the most exciting as the game went down to the wire and it was CJ McCollum’s beautiful game-winning two-pointer to decided the outcome (112-111) while Pascal Siacam once again this season missed his chance to save the Raptors who are now 2-8.

McCollum finished with 30 points followed by Damian Lillard with 23, Carmelo Anthony with 20, and Enes Kanter with 14 points. On the other side, Siacam logged a triple-double with 22 points, 13 boards, ten assists. OG Anuoby had 18 points.

The Milwaukee Bucks grabbed a 121-99 win over Orlando, led by Giannis Antetokounmpo with 22 points, Khris Middleton with 20, and Bobby Portis with 20 as well.

Middleton also grabbed ten rebounds. Orlando’s efforts were sparked by Nikola Vucevic who logged 28 points, 13 rebounds and five assists. Aaron Gordon helped with 21.

Washington’s squad was tired of losing games and decided enough is enough. They dismantled the Suns early on and sealed a 128-107 win in the end.

Bradley Beal banked in 34 points along with nine assists and eight boards while Davis Bertans scored 18, all coming from deep (6-9). On the opposing side, Devin Booker scored 33 and Dario Saric 13 points.

Harrison Barnes with 30 and D’Aaron Fox with 21 points led Sacramento past Indiana for a 127-122 win despite a great effort by Domantas Sabonis who logged 28 points and 11 rebounds. Malcolm Brogdon had 24 points.
