Adetokunbo again over 40 points, Jokic narrowly missed a triple-double, but still tied the game at the end

Milwaukee’s leader Janis Adetokunbo got over the 40-point mark again and helped his team to another victory. It was Nikola Jokic who contributed to the Warriors’ defeat with a great performance, literally in the last seconds of the game.

Adetokunbo was again in charge

In the game San Antonio Spurs vs Milwaukee Bucks (121:125), the huge Greek Janis Adetokunbo was again the central figure of the game. He scored 44 points, grabbed 14 rebounds and still managed to dish out 6 assists. However, it was quite a “chore” to finish the game with a winning score.

The battle of teams from opposite poles of the table should have been a clear-cut affair for the Bucks. However, the San Antonio team resisted hard on their home floor, especially thanks to the great performance of Devin Vassell, who scored 34 points for Milwaukee.

Adetokunbo tipped the scales especially in the last passage of the game, when he scored almost all of his team’s points. In addition, he boasted a great shooting percentage from the field, which amounted to 19 converted shot attempts out of 28.

Victor Wembanyama had to endure his 29th defeat of the season for Spurs on his 20th birthday. San Antonio continues to be one of the worst teams in the NBA. Milwaukee, on the other hand, is one of the best teams in the league with its 25th win of the season.

Jokic finishes strong to lead Denver to victory

In the Golden State Warriors vs Denver Nuggets (127:130) game, there was a powerful finish by Denver. The duels between these two teams are always very evenly matched, and that was also the case in today’s game, which also featured an infarct ending.

Even before the game was over, the Warriors had a significant lead, mainly thanks to Stephen Curry, who scored 30 points in the game. But on the Nuggets’ side, Nikola Jokic made a very significant contribution to turning the score to his side at the end.

He missed a prized triple-double by a single rebound. He poured in 34 points and had 10 assists. He was ably seconded by Aaron Gordon, who also surpassed the 30-point mark. In the last half-minute, Jokic first tied the game and then made a shot just before the end to decide the game!
