Long NBA night in perspective with eleven games on the bill. But at the end of the season, it is difficult to find matches with stakes, stars and adversity. Maybe the Lakers-Suns with LeBron James vs. Kevin Durant will reconcile us to that.

# DO NOT MISS
Lakers – Suns (4h30) : This is the poster of the day despite the uncertainties surrounding the stars of the match. The Lakers-Suns have always given us intense encounters between two franchises that don’t really like each other. Phoenix is guaranteed to finish fourth in the West unlike the Lakers who still have a very variable ranking. Currently seventh, they need this victory to still believe in a rise in the Top 6, a sign of qualifying for the Playoffs. But the fate of Los Angeles also depends on the Warriors, Pelicans, Wolves and a little Clippers.
Coming back to the evening game, he should be explosive. This might be the first confrontation between LeBron James and Kevin Durant since Christmas Day 2018. They still have to be there. Both LBJ and Anthony Davis are listed doubts for the game, although we have been used to this status with the King for some time. Kevin Durant, Devin Booker and Chris Paul might only play the first half or be completely rested.

- The Kings are blowing executives. Officially because the Playoffs are coming. Unofficially, because the Lakers at Play-in is more fun.
