• By Celtics players without "Jay" in the name did not get much against the Pelicans, but that was not necessary.

• Curious final seconds in Philadelphia. After Tyrese Haliburton condensed the residue of Kings with a wild fadeAway to -2, Georges Niang to play with 11.1 seconds to throw them. Niang did not find a free Sixer and seemed to take a break in time. The referee, however, saw that differently and whistle "the fastest 5-second violation of all time", as analytine Doris Burke was jokingly notes.
• The discussions about these decisions would have become intense after the game, the Kings could even balance or win the game. The Sixers, however, showed an impressive defensive performance with their best five defenders in the last 11 seconds, whereby Harrison Barnes ranked only a desperation throw with the end of the watch.
• It looked for a long time that the Sixers would have to despair in the end. Even without De'aaron Fox, who missed his fourth game in a row with an ankle injury, the kings led over three quarters of the game and in the meantime even with +17. Above all, Tyrese Haliburton, which powdered his previous Career High in points (28) with 38 counters (11/19 FG, 5/9 3P).
• On the other side, however, Joel Embid was outstanding again, even though he had great start-up difficulties. His first 8 points came from the frewurflinie, only shortly before the break he recorded his first goal from the field. Afterwards, however, Embiid turned properly and increased to 36 (10/18 FG, 14/18 FT), 12 rebounds and 6 assists. Tobias Harris (16, 7/12 FG), Tyrese Maxey (13, 7 assists) and Reservist Danny Green (11) came to Double Digits.
• At the Kings, the still Harrison Barnes (16, 8 Rebounds, 5 Assists), Davion Mitchell (15, 5 Assists) and Richaun Holmes (10, 9 rebounds) reached. Sacramento lacked the support of the bank, Buddy Hield failed with 2 points at 0/7 from the distance.

• What a game, what a power of the Raptors!

In the first Overtime she had brought Scottie Barnes with two free throws to 100: 100.
• There, Gary Trent Jr, just before the end of time, also from the free-scale, after a steal of O.G. Anunoby against Jimmy Butler had Toronto even the chance for direct victory, Anunoby awarded a turnaround from the middle distance. In the second Overtime Tyler Herro had the chance to Gamewinner in his hand, after the turn moving at the throw-up well worked well and mastered the run from the run in front of the basket with a floater, but hardly touched the ring.
• Even in the third OVERTIME, HERO took responsibility and the last three degrees of the Heat, but remained without success. Pascal Siakam brought the game at the free throw line out of reach. Especially bitter for butler, with 37 points, 14 rebounds, 10 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks the man of the game, but did not strike in the decisive moments. Before and in the first overtime he would have secured the victory with a goal, after a perfect start of 7/7 FG, however, he only met 7/19 out of the field.
• The top scorer of the Raptors was Trent Jr. with 33 counters (5/15 3P), Siakam was not far from a very rare 5x5 game with 21 points, 13 rebounds, 6 assists and 4 blocks and steals each.
