Oklahoma City defeated the Lakers' rivals 136-96, consolidating first place in the Western Conference, a game where Alexander Shai was decisive with 28 points. The reigning NBA champions are the only team to have surpassed 60 wins this season (61). Last night was a curse for the Lakers, who, in addition to the Thunder's obvious superiority, also had to deal with the injury of the team's star, Luka Doncic. In the third period, the basketball player who arrived from Dallas complained of pain in his left leg. When he tried to avoid Jalen Williams' coverage, it seemed that the injury was aggravated even more, which forced him to leave the court with 12 points scored.

San Antonio also kept up the pace, beating the Clippers 118-99, earning its 11th consecutive victory. Fox with 22 points and Castle with 20 points stood out for the Spurs. Charlotte's team beat Phoenix 127-107, a challenge where Miles Bridges was the best, author of 25 points.

Detroit defends first place in the Eastern Conference after a 113-108 victory over Minnesota, in a balanced challenge. Daniss Jenkins with 26 points led the Pistons. Golden State disappointed, who was defeated 118-111 at home by Cleveland (the Mitchell-Strus duo scored 49 points).
