Tuesday night was filled with high-quality match-ups in the NBA.
Most notably, the Brooklyn Nets narrowly defeated the New York Knicks, 112-110. Nets shooting guard James Harden had 34 points, as well as the game-winning free throws. The Nets also survived Tuesday night’s game thanks to Kevin Durant’s 27 points and nine assists.
No game measured up to the intense match-up between the Phoenix Suns and the Golden State Warriors. The two best teams in the NBA faced-0ff on Tuesday night, the Suns pulling away with a 104-96 victory. The Suns lost star shooting guard Devin Booker before half-time due to a hamstring injury–but that did not stop Phoenix from defeating Golden State. Warriors point guard Steph Curry had a historically bad evening, as he shot 3-14 on three-pointers.
