By Eurohoops team/ info@eurohoops.net

Luka Doncic kept his tremendous scoring streak going Saturday night. The rookie sensation finished the Dallas Mavericks’ 111-96 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder with 22 points, eight assists and six rebounds in 31 minutes. Dennis Schroder scored 19 points for the losing side.

Milwaukee Bucks’ leader, Giannis Antetokounmpo, scored 27 points and also had 18 rebounds, four assists, five steals and two blocks but wasn’t enough for his team at the “Staples Center”. The Los Angeles Clippers got a 128-126 win in overtime. Danilo Gallinari drained 13 points for the Californians.

Marc Gasol summed up his effort with 18 points and 12 rebounds in Memphis Grizzlies’ overtime win over the Philadelphia 76ers with 112-106. The Spaniard’s team remained perfect at the “FedEx Forum”.

Jonas Valanciunas sank 19 points and grabbed ten rebounds aiding the Toronto Raptors in their 128-112 win against the New York Knicks. Enes Kanter had 15 points and 15 rebounds for the losing side.

Clint Capela also scored a double-double, his 8th this year, with 12 points and 17 rebounds, but the Houston Rockets suffered a 96-89 defeat against the San Antonio Spurs.

Goran Dragic returned to action, but seemed out of sort after dealing with a right knee injury. He didn’t score (0/7 FG) in Miami Heat’s 116-110 defeat at the hands of the Washington Wizards.

Injured Nikola Mirotic and Cedi Osman missed their team’s matches. Pau Gasol also remained on the injury list.
