The regular part of the NBA season is slowly coming to an end, and there are only seven games left to play.
Chicago was better than Detroit (103:81), and Nikola Vucevic played all 82 matches in the season for the first time in his career.
The Bulls ended up in 10th place in the East, and their first playoff opponent will be Toronto.
In order to qualify for the playoffs, the team from the "windy" city will have to record two victories in a row, and if they defeat the Raptors, their rival will be the loser of the duel between Miami and Atlanta.
Vucevic scored eight points (17/4 from the field) and grabbed seven rebounds in 9 minutes, and Marko Simonović also got the chance to play, who scored four baskets in eight minutes spent on the floor.
Zack Levin was the most effective "bull" with 17 points, while Kilian Hayes stood out among the Pistons with 26 points.
Boston defeated Atlanta in "TD Garden" (120:114) and thus finished the season in the right way.
The Celtics will enter the playoffs from the second position, and they will find out the name of their opponent in the first round of the playoffs after the playoff matches are played.
Peyton Pritchard recorded the first triple-double of his career tonight (30-14-11), Mike Muscala scored 27 points, Sam Hauser added 26.
Bruno Fernando led the team from Georgia with a double-double performance (19-10), Garrison Matthews scored 19 points, Jaylen Johnson 15, Deandre Hunter 14...
In the preview of the first round of the playoffs, Philadelphia outclassed Brooklyn (134:105). These two teams will compete again in the coming weeks, but then the stakes will be much higher.
Slam dunk champion Mack McClang was given the opportunity and did not disappoint. He was close to a triple-double, and he scored 20 points, along with nine rebounds and assists.
Louis King and Shake Milton also scored 20 points, Paul Reed added 17.
On the other hand, Cam Thomas went wild and scored 46 points, Raekwon Gray stopped at 17, and Dennis Duke at 15.
The best player of the Nets, Mikal Bridges, made a unique effort tonight, because this game was his 83rd of the season.
Miami won against Orlando (123:110), and this game was the last in the 20-year long career of Udonis Haslem, who was the most effective individual of the "heat" with 24 points.
Before the start, Haslem received an original gift from Bem Adebayo, in the form of a rocking chair, which symbolizes the upcoming retirement of the three-time NBA champion (2006, 2011, 2012).
The team from Florida finished the season in seventh place, so they will have to reach the playoffs through the playoffs.
Duncan Robinson vaporized Haslem, scoring 20 points, Victor Oladipo had 19...
Kevon Harris led the Magic with 22 points, Caleb Hustan had one less, and Chuma Okeke finished with 14.
