In the NBA, Franz Wagner lacks the precision from a distance. Isaiah Hartenstein’s run with OKC continues.
Basketball world champion Franz Wagner has received a setback in the NBA with Orlando Magic. After three victories, the Berlin team lost 92: 101 against the Dallas Mavericks. Wagner’s 20 points were not enough.
After top star Paolo Banchero (35 points), Wagner was the second best thrower of the Magic, plus nine rebounds and two assists for the German. Wagner’s litter rate from the field (38.1 percent) was expandable, but none of his five three-point throws found the basket.
Breaks for Wagner
The way to the play-offs for the Florida team, which continues to rank eighth in the Eastern Conference with a balance of 35:39 victories, will probably lead over the play-in tournament.
In the west, Isaiah Hartenstein continued to expand his winning streak with Oklahoma City Thunder. OKC, which is already qualified as the number one of the Western Conference for the Play-Offs, celebrated the eighth victory after the 125:10: 104 against the Memphis Grizzlies. Hartenstein stood on the field right from the start, scored 18 points and collected eleven rebounds. MVP candidate Shai Gilgeous-Alexander towered over with 37 points.
The Indiana Pacers provided an offensive spectacle: At the 162:10 success of the Washington Wizards, the fourth in the table of the Eastern Conference set up a record for most points in franchise history. No team also scored more points this season, led by the strong Tyrese Haliburton (29 points), nine Pacers players scored in double digits.
