On this last day of the year 2022, the NBA does not stop and offers us a nice little program to move on to 2023 in the best possible way. 9 games including one from 9 p.m., before switching to a night when the Grizzlies of Ja Morant will play the Pelicans of Zion Williamson.
# THE PROGRAM
- 21h : Pacers – Clippers
- 1h : Hornets – Nets
- 1h : Bulls – Cavaliers
- 1h : Rockets – Knicks
- 1h : Spurs – Mavs
- 2h : Grizzlies – Pelicans
- 2h : Wolves – Pistons
- 2h : Thunder – Sixers
- 3h : Jazz – Heat
# DO NOT MISS
Ja Morant vs Zion Williamson, frankly we had worse to end the year. The first two choices of the 2019 Draft meet for the second time this season on December 31, the first having turned to Morant’s advantage both collectively (victory for Memphis 132-111) and individually (23 points – 11 assists for Ja, 14 points for Zion). A great source of motivation therefore for Williamson, who has been particularly hot since his return following a passage in the health protocol: 43 points once morest Minnesota first, 36 once morest the Sixers then, as much to say that the Grizzlies have only good stand. Ja Morant and his buddies need a lot of reassurance following their poor recent results, they who remain on 4 defeats in 6 games. “We are quiet in the West” declared Ja, obviously not so much. And the Pelicans are not going to hesitate to push Memphis if they can. The Zion gang have a first conference spot to defend, as well as a winning streak (five in a row) to preserve.
# ALSO WATCH
- Paul George’s return to Indiana at 9 p.m., pretty cool.
- The Nets are unstoppable right now. And it’s not the Hornets who are going to change that.
- 5 wins in 6 games for the Bulls, can they confirm once morest Cleveland?
- 5 losses in a row for the Knicks, will they sink a little more in Houston?
- Luka Doncic traveling to San Antonio for a good old Texas derby, best pick alert in TTFL.
- Wolves – Pistons, that’s not a dream for December 31st.
- Rather Shai Gilgeous-Alexander or Joel Embiid tonight?
- A lot of false notes at the moment for the Jazz (3 defeats in a row). Time to restart the machine once morest Miami?
