Clippers, Raptors extend winning streak as Seth reunites with former team

Clippers extend winning streak as Seth faces former Pacers player: The Los Angeles Clippers extended their winning streak with a 151-127 victory over the Indiana Pacers, thanks in part to former Pacers player Daniel Theis. The win marked their eighth consecutive victory, solidifying their lead in the NBA record for longest winning streak. Cyrus contributed four points, nine rebounds and two caps in 22 minutes against his former team a month after the trade. James Harden had another key performance in the final quarter, scoring 21 of his game-high 35 points to help the Clippers to victory.

Raptors overcome early stumbles with win over Hornets: The Toronto Raptors outscored the Charlotte Hornets 114-99 after leading by as many as 11 points. Without starter Miles Bridges, the Hornets struggled in the final quarter before the Raptors outscored the Hornets 35-18. Bridges was denied entry to Canada after being on probation for domestic violence, leaving the Hornets shorthanded.

Doncic shines for defending Nuggets champs: Luka Doncic once again showed his talent with 38 points and 11 rebounds for the Dallas Mavericks. However, it wasn’t enough against the defending champions Denver Nuggets, who beat them 130-104. Despite a relatively quiet night from Nikola Jokic, who scored just eight points, the Nuggets relied on a balanced scoring attack and strong defense to maintain their championship form.
