Recap Roundups
November 25, 2017
San Antonio 106, Charlotte 86
The San Antonio Spurs rolled to a 106-86 victory over the Charlotte Hornets on Saturday night at the Spectrum Center, but they were almost apologetic afterward.
Philadelphia 130, Orlando 111
The Philadelphia 76ers' star rookie did not play, and their best player was under the weather. Still, the duo of J.J. and T.J. was too much for the Orlando Magic.
Portland 108, Washington 105
Portland Trail Blazers guard CJ McCollum wasn't about to let another hero opportunity slip away. That the Washington Wizards are struggling mightily late in games certainly helped.
Toronto 112, Atlanta 78
The expectations for the Toronto Raptors are never very high when guard DeMar DeRozan scores only two points.
Boston 108, Indiana 98
INDIANAPOLIS-- Even in the wake of the fourth-best win streak in the history of the Boston Celtics franchise, Kyrie Irving knows the team is still growing.
Houston 117, New York 102
With an exasperated smile and an exaggerated head nod, Houston forward Trevor Ariza emphasized a point intended for his teammates, one about how much easier things could be for the Rockets on the offensive end if only they displayed consistent commitment defensively.
Dallas 97, Oklahoma City 81
Dirk Nowitzki scored 19 points and the Dallas Mavericks limited the Oklahoma City Thunder to 31 points over the second and third quarters in a 97-81 victory Saturday night at the American Airlines Center.
Golden State 110, New Orleans 95
After running away from the Chicago Bulls in a track meet, the Golden State Warriors got into more of a wrestling match with the New Orleans Pelicans on Saturday night.
Utah 121, Milwaukee 108
Milwaukee Bucks coach Jason Kidd knew his team would have to limit the Jazz from the 3-point line to leave Vivint Smart Home Arena with a win on Saturday night.
L.A. Clippers 97, Sacramento 95
Isolated against a slightly taller man and facing him, Los Angeles Clippers forward Blake Griffin thought initially about trying to drive with the basketball to the rim.
