Victor Wembanyama and San Antonio spoil in Chicago (Nuit des Bleus)

This is also the case for 11th and 12th in the West, Sacramento and Phoenix. Despite the absence of De’Aaron Fox (hip), the Kings won their 5th victory in a row, at home against Miami (123-118) eleven days after the dismissal of coach Mike Brown. As for the Suns, they took advantage, in particular, of the absence of Joel Embiid (foot) to win in Philadelphia (99-109), despite a good Guerschon Yabusele (14 points at 5/12 and 10 rebounds, including 5 offensive, in 36 minutes), with a modified rotation, Bradley Beal (25 points in 30 minutes) now starting on the bench.
