Nov 29 (The Sports Xchange)
Nets 127, Clippers 122 (2OT)
Sean Kilpatrick scored 31 of his career-high 38 points in the fourth
quarter and two overtime periods, and the Brooklyn Nets stopped a
seven-game losing streak by rallying for a wild 127-122 victory over
the Los Angeles Clippers on Tuesday.
Kilpatrick finished off Brooklyn's first win since Nov. 12 in
Phoenix by providing the final margin with 13.5 seconds left. He
drove through the lane, flipped up a layup while getting fouled by
DeAndre Jordan and made the basket.
Before the three-hour, five-minute marathon finished, the Nets had
to withstand game-tying three-pointers by Chris Paul and Jamal
Crawford.
Magic 95, Spurs 83
Serge Ibaka scored 18 points and Nikola Vucevic added 12 points and
10 rebounds off the bench as Orlando ended a 10-game losing streak
against San Antonio.
Evan Fournier added 13 points, Aaron Gordon scored 11 and Efrid
Payton 10 as the Magic (7-11) snapped a four-game skid this season.
The Spurs' Kawhi Leonard led all scorers with 21 points, while
LaMarcus Aldridge hit for 16 points and Manu Ginobili added 13 for
San Antonio (14-4), which lost for the first time in 10 games.

two blocked shots, setting the tone for a Bucks' offense that shot
53.5 percent and made 7 of 19 3-point attempts.

led Cleveland with 22 points but scored just eight over the final
three quarters.

Achilles just 1:50 into the game.

field on a night when the Pistons shot 48.9 percent and hit a
season-high 12 3-pointers.
Drummond was assessed a Flagrant 2 foul and ejected with 4:09
remaining in the first half, with the score tied 46-46. The Pistons
went on to lead 57-54 at halftime, and then they dominated the
second half.

Gordon Hayward scored a season-high 31 points and Rudy Gobert added
16 points, 14 rebounds and three blocked shots as Utah won its third
straight home game.

hamstring strain in the third quarter.
