The MVP of the night | Stephen Curry has found his paw | NBA

Game after game, week after week, Stephen Curry has slipped in the MVP race, and in January he's running 29% from 3-pointers, and he'd just been an awful 3-of-23 from afar in the last two games. of Warriors. But tonight, against Wolves, he regained some of his luster, and he signs one of his most convincing matches for a long time. Alongside his "Splash Brother", he has 29 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists, all 50% on shots, with a nice 6 of 10 from 3-point range. Curry had not reached 60% at 3-pointers since November 17! We even had a little unprecedented celebration in the 3rd quarter. As if the interested party needed to free themselves, to relax. “Without Draymond, the rhythm is different in attack and the systems are different” “There are a lot of changes, every game, w...

Terence Davis out until further notice | NBA

Sacramento didn't just take a monumental slap at Boston on Tuesday. The Knigs also lost Terence Davis along the way, with the fullback suffering a heavy fall that damaged his right wrist. The first examinations revealed lesions on the level of the tendons of the wrist concerned, and the hour is for the moment to "the exploration of all kinds of treatments" likely to mitigate his unavailability, still unknown at this stage, as explained by the coach of the Californian club, Alvin Gentry. For the player, it's a big blow when he had just passed a career-high 35 points on January 19 against Detroit and had followed up with 22 units in the next game against the Bucks. “He was playing really good basketball for us, attacking the circle well”, lamented Alvin Gentry, who also accused Chi...

Celtics don’t want to hear about trade involving Robert Williams III | NBA

As the “trade deadline” approaches, things are stirring behind the scenes and Boston is one of the franchises where we can expect change, the formation of Ime Udoka having marked this exercise above all by its irregularity. While Brad Stevens did not really give a clear lead as to the intentions of the Celtics, the various "insiders" such as Shams Charania (The Athletic), Steve Bulpett (Heavy) and Michael Scotto (HoopsHype) gave a little more details. . To start, among the players likely to move, Boston could agree to let go of Payton Pritchard, Aaron Nesmith and / or Romeo Langford. Which means that other elements likely to weigh in the balance, such as a Grant Williams, would not be affected. (more…)

“Trade deadline”: the Cavaliers aim for a second back | NBA

After losing Collin Sexton and Ricky Rubio, we imagined that the Cavaliers would take advantage of the “trade deadline” to recruit a point guard, but according to Hoopshype, management would instead seek a second full-back. The hatching, and even the explosion of Darius Garland, followed by the arrival of Rajon Rondo seem sufficient to approach the second part of the season, and according to our confreres, three players would be in their viewfinder: Caris Levert, Eric Gordon and Terrence Ross. The track Joe Harris, a former member of the house, is more complicated, given the status he has acquired in Brooklyn. The first is a free electron, a strong attacker, and he would indeed do good in position 2. He does not have the defensive qualities of Isaac Okoro but he would bring pun...

Collin Sexton back in the playoffs? | NBA

We thought we would not see him again until next season, after his operation for a torn meniscus in his left knee, but Collin Sexton could finally find the floors in the playoffs. As his rehabilitation is going smoothly, the Cavaliers fullback clearly hasn't ruled out the idea of ​​a possible comeback when things get serious. "I'm fine and I'm on schedule", he explains to the Plain Dealer. “I feel good physically and mentally. I'll come back when I'm 100% and my body tells me it's ready.
