For the third time in seven games in the Orlando bubble, Timothé Luwawu-Cabarrot has passed the twenty point mark. And after having raised his personal best in the NBA to 26 units, he again touched this mark on Tuesday (24) during the victory of the Brooklyn Nets over Orlando (108-96). With the two teams secured respectively seventh and eighth place in the Eastern Conference, there was not the slightest stake in this part. The two coaches have therefore turned their workforce enormously. Jarrett Allen, Joe Harris and Caris LeVert were preserved on the Nets side while Evan Fournier, still in pain, Michael Carter-Williams, Aaron Gordon and Mo Bamba were not used by the Magic.

“With matches like this, we can show what we can do and what we are working on, appreciated Luwawu-Cabarrot who knew how to seize opportunities whenever the leaders of the Nets were put to rest in Orlando. It’s important to keep the pace, to play well in defense and attack. Personally, I understand my role now. I have to score, make sure we advance to the score. You have to be ready when I’m called, do whatever it takes to win. “
