- oklahoma city thunder 117 – 96 phoenix suns
At the end of the season where Oklahoma City has not played anything for a long time, there was this match once morest the best team in the league: Phoenix. While they have already equaled the record for wins over a season (62 in 1992/1993), the players of Monty Williams were probably expecting a quieter night once morest the Thunder. Without Devin Booker, Jae Crowder or DeAndre Ayton, all left to rest in anticipation of the play-offs, Phoenix ended up losing his basketball on his return from the locker room in front of the envy and success of the OKC players. With a great collective (33 assists out of 43 baskets scored) and seven players with 10 points or more, the flocks of Mark Daigneault offered themselves a prestigious victory in the wake of an excellent Olivier Sarr, author of his career record. With his 24 points 9/12 and his 6 rebounds off the bench, the native of Bordeaux was the perfect leader of this team. Well helped by the 17 points ofAlexei Pokusevsky or even the 17 points ofAaron Wigginsthe Frenchman made the Phoenix players lose their minds. Tho Maledon, the other Frenchie of the team, is a little more discreet than during these last outings. He finished with 9 points, 5 assists and 4 rebounds.
C Suns, it will therefore be necessary to wait to get the franchise record of wins over a season. This step should be checked in the next game once morest the Lakers. It is also the first time in more than a month that the teammates of Chris Paul lose two games in a row and it’s only the 4th time this season that this has happened! Mikal Bridges finished with 18 points 7/17 on shots, Chris Paul finished with 11 points and 9 assists.
