Kevin Garnett was clearly angered by claims that Kevin Love is the best player in the history of Minnesota - the man who shined for 12 years in the "Wolves" jersey showed what kind of basketball player he is, as he brought victory to Boston in Minneapolis (24:10) with 100 points and 79 rebounds. .
KG was welcomed and given a standing ovation, even though he has never lost at the Target Center since wearing a Celtics jersey.
Interestingly, he didn't even want to go, but the club management practically drove him to the most trophy club in the NBA, where he won a championship ring in the first season.
In the absence of the injured Peković, Lav played a classic center and recorded 22 baskets and 11 rebounds, but with a much weaker field goal than Garnet (18-5 vs. 18-12).
With this victory, Boston took over first place in the Atlantic Division from Philadelphia, who lost 6 of their last nine games.
The Sixers lost to the second worst team in the NBA, Washington (97:76), who won four times this season.
Jan Veseli had a much better performance than Nikola Vučević - the former Partizan basketball player had six goals and 11 rebounds on his account, while the Montenegrin representative had two points and a caught ball in nine and a half minutes.
In the winning team, the man with a 10-day contract, Kartije Martin, shone, who scored 26 points in 20 minutes (12-8 field goal).
Dwayne Wade scored 30 points against Toronto (113:101), and he dedicated the victory to his nephew who was wounded in the shooting in Chicago and is in the hospital.
The same number of hits was scored by the former idol of Raptors fans Chris Bosh, who was greeted with whistles.
Dallas was losing by 15 points on the visit to Orlando, but it found the strength to reach the triumph with Dirk Nowicki's goal through Hid Turkoglu in the last second.
