Isaiah Thomas after end of scoring streak: ‘I’ll break it again’
Feb. 27 was Stephen Curry’s day … until Monday
Ishmail Wainright is the lone senior for 11th-ranked Baylor, and was recognized with a video tribute after his final home game. This also likely was the Ferrell Center finale for Johnathan Motley, a standout junior and potential NBA lottery pick who delivered quite a farewell to Bears fans if this was indeed his last game there. Motley scored 19 of his 23 points after halftime in a 71-62 victory over 10th-ranked West Virginia on Monday night.
It’s an exciting day in West Palm Beach, Fla., where the Astros and Nationals will square off in the first game at their new joint Spring Training facility: Ballpark of the Palm Beaches. You can see it for yourself, today on MLB.TV.
”It’s going to take a village to win,” coach Dwane Casey said. DeRozan made a turnaround jumper with 1.9 seconds remaining, finishing with 37 points and leading the Raptors to a 92-91 victory over the New York Knicks on Monday night. The Raptors won their fourth in a row after learning earlier in the day that Lowry will have right wrist surgery that could sideline him the rest of the regular season.
Kyle Lowry hoped the pain in his right wrist would go away so he could join the new-look Toronto Raptors on the court. The All-Star guard will have surgery Tuesday to remove loose bodies from his wrist, and the Raptors say they hope he can return for the postseason.
Dennis Schroder had 21 points to help the Atlanta Hawks snap a three-game losing streak with a chippy 114-98 win over the Boston Celtics on Monday night. Paul Millsap and Dwight Howard each added 17 points. The Hawks led by 13 entering the fourth quarter and increased the edge to 24 despite playing the final 16 minutes without Howard, who was ejected in the third quarter after receiving his second technical foul.
Alex Galchenyuk scored on a power play at 2:54 of overtime and the Montreal Canadiens rallied from a two-goal third-period deficit to beat the New Jersey Devils 4-3 on Monday night. Max Pacioretty scored twice in the final 11:23 of regulation to tie the game and Alexander Radulov added a goal for the Canadiens, who won consecutive games for the first time since early January. Al Montoya had 34 saves for Montreal.
Kevin Durant had 27 points in his return to the lineup and the Golden State Warriors overcame the worst 3-point shooting performance of Stephen Curry’s career in a 119-108 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday night. Klay Thompson scored 21 points and Draymond Green had 14 points, 11 assists, six rebounds and five steals for the Warriors, who opened a five-game East Coast trip by winning their fourth straight and boosting their NBA-best record to 50-9. Durant returned after missing a game with a right hand injury.
LeBron James returned from a bout with strep throat and scored 24 points, Kyrie Irving added 25 and the Cleveland Cavaliers held off the Milwaukee Bucks 102-95 on Monday night. James missed Saturday’s loss to Chicago – the Cavs fell to 0-4 this season without their superstar – and was listed as questionable before arriving at Quicken Loans Arena. James’ dunk triggered an 11-0 run that helped put away the Bucks, who were within 86-85 midway through the fourth.
