The 5 outstanding performances of the night in the NBA


Kelly Oubre Jr (Charlotte Hornets)

The Warriors must be wondering why they weren’t allowed this version of Kelly Oubre last season. After a difficult year, the winger returns to the Hornets. In a role of sixth man who seems to suit him. Even if he had taken his place in the five major on Monday night. Logic, LaMelo Ball, Terry Rozier, Mason Plumlee and Jalen McDaniels are forfeited for Charlotte.

The North Carolina franchise narrowly won in overtime against Philadelphia (124-127). By suffering the 43 points of Joel Embiid. But James Borrego’s players need not be ashamed. Especially not Oubre. He was very prolific with 35 points, 5 rebounds and 4 steals on the clock.

A performance in line with his previous matches. He still points to 25 points on average over his last 7 outings. Over the season, the veteran is now 16 points and above all 39% success behind the arc in addition to 7 attempts per game! What a bonus for the Hornets.

Zach LaVine (Chicago Bulls)

There is still a good winning atmosphere in Chicago this season. It’s really not the same team anymore. Yesterday, she was hosting Denver and had to juggle the absences of DeMar DeRozan (COVID-19 protocol) and Alex Caruso (injured). Despite that, the Bulls won without really pushing. 109-97. With a great Zach LaVine at the helm.

The “Windy City” All-Star full-back has taken responsibility for offense. By regaining its status as the first solo option. With brio. 32 and 8 assists for LaVine, determining to lead the Bulls to this new success despite a triple-double from Nikola Jokic in front. A boss match. And a second place in the East for Chi-town.

Danilo Gallinari (Atlanta Hawks)

Oh that it must make him happy to finally chain the good performances. Dismissed, hampered by injuries and short of pace for weeks, Danilo Gallinari is slowly gaining strength. After registering 18 and 17 points in two short defeats, this time he scored 20 points in 24 minutes off the bench. Except the Hawks won against the Timberwolves.

Performances that will do good for the morale of the Italian. Atlanta is up for grabs this season after making it to the Conference Finals last season. But if Gallinari finds a form of regularity, this team will take on another dimension.

Andrew Wiggins (Golden State Warriors)

It’s not clear how they did it – maybe it’s thanks to the leadership of Stephen Curry or that of Draymond – but Andrew Wiggins seems set on getting serious and diligent throughout the season. It would be a first. Maybe a sign of the old first draft pick’s maturity.

He is not always successful, but he makes the effort. And when he puts in it, it’s only happiness. And that makes all the difference for Golden State. Orlando could do absolutely nothing against the Canadian, author of 28 points and 8 award-winning baskets, his new career record, last night.

In the stats, Wiggins hasn’t really changed. He’s still solid. 18 points, just over 4 rebounds and 38% three-point success. But there is better in attitude and consistency.

Chris Paul (Phoenix Suns)

21 points, 10 assists, 10 points scored in the money time and a narrow victory for the Suns against Spurs. Chris Paul is really a crack anyway. The quintessential maestro. Always able to get his team out of any situation with his basketball IQ and skills. It’s strong.
