Riding off the back of a 40-point game, Luka Doncic exploded for another triple-double and it was one for the history books as the Mavericks rode past the Kings in OT. More dramatics ensued as Devin Booker sunk a miraculous game-winner to maintain the Phoenix Suns’ perfect record in the bubble. An unlikely upset saw the Nets snatch a win versus the Bucks, and T.J. Warren of the Pacers eviscerated the hometown Orlando Magic with a performance nothing short of spectacular.

The well-known marksman Devin Booker was hitting on all cylinders in yesterday’s matchup with the Clippers. On top of knocking down six three-pointers, Booker played hero-ball in the game’s waning moments by cashing in on fadeaway as the horn sounded.

Luka Doncic has wowed the NBA all season and now the second-year phenom is a part of history (again), after fueling the Mavs to an OT win over the Kings. Clocking in his 16th triple-double (most in the NBA), the 21-year-old became the youngest player ever to notch a 30-point, 20-rebound (career-high), 10-assist game.

At one point deemed a role player, T.J. Warren has rebranded himself as the Pacers’ go-to option with unwavering shooting in the bubble. He went 8-8 from the field through the first two quarters and is the Orlando bubble leader in points (39.7 PPG), shooting a remarkable 65.3% from the field and 60.9% from three!

 

In one of the most improbable upsets, the No. 8 seed Nets took down the No.1 seed Bucks without key players Caris LeVert, Jarrett Allen, or Joe Harris active. Instead, Garrett Temple came through in the final seconds versus Milwaukee to sink a step-back jumper that sealed the game for Brooklyn.

The Frenchman Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot was instrumental in keeping Brooklyn competitive with the Bucks as he buried 5-7 threes, capping off a 26 point career-high scoring outing.

The undrafted Michigan Wolverine has turned a corner in his young career, filling his resume with impeccable three-point shooting results as he ranks third in 3PM, fueled by the fourth-highest efficiency this season. Robinson sank five three-pointers in this game and his final one might as well have been the ultimate dagger in Boston’s chances.

The slimmed-down veteran Carmelo Anthony is enjoying a stint with his fourth team in the last four seasons. Melo rocked the Rockets with this timely bucket from the top of the key that helped earn Portland their second victory since the season’s restart.

To close out the 3rd quarter with an exclamation point, Kemba Walker fired off a prayer from the center court logo to give his Celtics a morale boost, but it wasn’t enough as the Heat would prevail in the end.

On their way to stunning the NBA, the Nets’ Justin Anderson hammered home this poster-worthy slam over reigning MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo, which served as a major momentum builder for Brooklyn.

The Beard’s full-court pass had the precision it needed to be placed right into the breadbasket of Russell Westbrook who found McLemore in the nick of time to beat the first half’s buzzer.

Full game highlights of today’s close games will be posted here once they conclude.
