Between two NBA Cup final phases, the regular season resumes its rights and this is the case this Sunday with seven posters on the menu including an enticing Spurs – Timberwolves which will see Victor Wembanyama and Rudy Gobert face off.
Tonight's NBA program
- Indiana Pacers – New Orleans Pelicans à 23h
- Orlando Magic – New York Knicks à 00h
- Washington Wizards – Boston Celtics à 00h
- San Antonio Spurs – Minnesota Timberwolves at 1am
- Phoenix Suns – Portland Trail Blazers à 2h
- Golden State Warriors – Dallas Mavericks at 2:30 a.m.
- Los Angeles Lakers – Memphis Grizzlies at 3:30 a.m.
Victor Wembanyama crosses Rudy Gobert
After his two victorious free throws against the Blazers, Victor Wembanyama will have an adversity of a higher level with the reception of the Wolves at the stroke of 1 a.m.
If Wemby appears as the big favorite in the race for Defender of the Year, Minnesota has the fittest defense in the League with only 91 points conceded over the last five games. A defense led by the reigning DPOY: Rudy Gobert.
So will the Spurs find the loophole to break the Wolves' many barriers? The answer this evening.
Bilal Coulibaly and Alexandre Sarr against the reigning champions
It's the most unbalanced game of the night, the Celtics with the third best record in the League travel to Washington to challenge the Wizards who have the worst record in the entire NBA.
Barring a miracle, Boston should come out of this without straining too much, but like any good self-respecting Frenchman, we will be in front just to see how Alexandre Sarr and Bilal Coulibaly will fare.
So we say see you at 1 a.m.
Can the Lakers get their heads above water?
In a series of four defeats in five games, the situation is starting to seriously become complicated on the Los Angeles side.
With LeBron James still absent for personal reasons, it will be up to Anthony Davis to carry the house for the Lakers except that opposite, there are the Grizzlies, one of the best teams in the West.
The operation doesn't look easy for the Angelinos and the Oursons should take great pleasure in pushing JJ Redick's men a little further, but you never know, we'll still be up at 3:30 a.m. just in case. where D'Angelo Russell decides to play basketball seriously…
