In the NBA basketball league, the Detroit Pistons lost to the Utah Jazz 111:119 (32:34, 26:30, 30:26, 23:29) on the road and suffered their 25th consecutive loss.
An extremely poor season threatens NBA records, as the Cleveland Cavaliers (2010/2011) and Philadelphia 76ers (2013/2014) have had 26 consecutive losses in a season, but no one else has recorded more. After a total of two seasons (2014/2015 and 2015/2016), Philadelphia has lost 28 games in a row.
The Detroit Pistons thus repeat their negative record by losing against the Brooklyn Nets on Christmas Eve, Estonian time. Three days later Brooklyn will also play at home.
In the game against Utah, Detroit’s most productive players were Cade Cunningham and Jaden Ivey with 24 points, but they also committed six and five turnovers, respectively. Forward Kelly Olnyk scored 27 points for the winners.
The Memphis Grizzlies season also did not go well, but in the 13th home game, the second victory was achieved when the Indiana Pacers were defeated 116:103 (35:22, 23:34, 28:21, 30:26) . . Desmond Bane had 31 points and seven assists for the winners.
There is a very different atmosphere in Minnesota, where the local Timberwolves beat the Los Angeles Lakers 118:11 (36:32, 27:27, 24:24, 31:28) at home and have lost only one of 13 home games this year.
The Milwaukee Bucks have won 16 home games and lost two. The Orlando Magic were defeated 118:114 (28:31, 31:25, 32:26, 27:32) on Thursday. Giannis Antetokounmpo had 37 points and ten rebounds for the winners.
Portland Trail Blazers quarterback Anfernee Simons scored 41 points and shared seven assists, but his club had to concede a narrow 118-117 (33-24, 34-30, 26-26, 25-37) victory over the Washington Wizards at home.
Tulemused: Detroit – Utah 111:119, Cleveland – New Orleans 104:123, Chicago – San Antonio 114:95, Memphis – Indiana 116:103, Milwaukee – Orlando 118:114, Oklahoma City – LA Clippers 134:115, Minnesota – LA Lakers 118:114, Portland-Washington 117:118.
