A painful failure: Valančiūnas and “Grizliai’s” nails bleed even in the face of heavily bleeding rivals

The Grizzles, who were firmly considered favorites of the duel, did not justify their status and were already more than 20 points away by the end of the second half – 46:67.

The Warriors’ victory over their direct competitors was not hampered by the visiting field or the fact that they did not have their leader Stephen Curry, James Wiseman and Eric Paschall, three of the five best players on the team. Not to mention the loss of Klay Thompson, who has been out all season.

Andrew Wiggins, who gave the best performance of the season, became the leader of the “Soldiers” and scored up to 40 points (8/13 of two points, 6/11 of three points, 6/9 of penalty, 8 rebounds ). Jordan Poole added 25 points and Damion Lee 21 points.

Ja Morant and Grayson Allen scored 14 points for Tennessee and Brandon Clarke for 13.

Despite the crush, Jonas Valančiūnas managed to collect his usual double. In the county of Lithuania: 10 points (4/6 from two points, 0/1 from three points, 2/4 penalty), 16 rebounds and 4 assists in 25 minutes.

The “Grizlis” can be rehabilitated from Saturday, as the teams will fight each other again.

20-year-old David Sirvydis also had the rare opportunity to step onto the NBA floor.

He is represented on the Detroit Pistons tour. 113: 100 (27:28, 28:23, 29:26, 29:23) overcame losses in a row at the Houston Rockets (11/29) and achieved their second consecutive victory.

Probably just because of the highest possible call from the NBA rookie stock market, this year’s Rockets stumbled for the 19th time in a row and set an all-time club record. The worst achievement in the league is that of the Philadelphia 76ers, who have survived a series of 28 failures.

D. Sirvydis appeared in the square in the last minute of the duel and did not notice anything during it.

The Pistons were led by Frank Jackson with 23 (5/5 3s), Saddiq Bey with 20, Jerami Grant with 18 (5/21 shots) and Josh Jackson with 15 points.

In the Rockets attack, John Wall stood out with 21 points, Victor Oladipo with 19 points and Christian Woods with 18 points (11 rebounds).
