Klay Thompson - 3pts contest winner

After Dončić's injury, Irving performed well with two consecutive overs. His shots didn't miss against Denver, and they also defended well against smaller teams, scoring 27 points against the Heat. Today they face a weak defensive opponent, who defends against opponents almost the worst in the league.

Dallas arrives after a very tough game yesterday, which went into overtime against the Heat and who knows how much strength will be left to fight against Atlanta. Doncic is already out, but with Grimes filling in he's listed as "doubtful" which means there's a very small chance he will play. Irving is also questionable because of his illness. Atlanta hasn't been showing stable gameplay, but their injuries have improved and all key players have returned. I believe the first home game after two weeks will be full of energy from the home fans, and there's also a chance to redeem themselves after two bad losses. Hawks are one of those teams where you don't know what to expect, but they are a talented team and have shown that they can defeat even better teams, like the Knicks and even the Celtics on the road this season.

Brownas was dominant in the last match, now I think it's Tatum's turn. At home, he can show off, the opponent is weak, so I'm expecting good numbers from him because the clippers don't have anyone who would step up properly.

Even without Gordon, Denver looks like one of the better teams in the West because Jokic simply showcases divine basketball skills. With Jokic, they have won 6 out of their last 7 games, including a great performance against the Lakers, where they scored 25 points on the road. The team is clearly on the rise as they return home. The Knicks seem to be disappointing this season, starting with a 5-6 record and winning only 4 in a row, beating teams like the Nets twice, Wizards, and Suns without Beal and Durant. However, their defense has not been impressive this season, which is not what we are used to seeing from Thibodeau's teams. They also lost to the Jazz by 15 points and overall, they do not look good on the road with 4 losses in their last 6 games. Knowing that Denver is one of the toughest away games in the league, it is unlikely that the Knicks will perform well in this game.

Without main player Cunningham, Detroit has won over Beasley's team and scored a total of 6 out of 7 victories in the past games.

The match against the Jazz did not go well, even though Brunson made some great shots, we still fell short of the total by just a few points. Now our opponent is more serious, but our focus should also be greater. It is unclear about Towns' game, so Brunson will have to take on more responsibility.
