Milwaukee fought back from a 22 point deficit to tie the game in the fourth quarter. Missed free throws gave the Bucks the win and kept the Celtics dreams if Wiggins alive. Boston doesn’t have any wins on the season and are tied with the Magic in loss column at 2. Bostonians can take comfort in the Red Sox for a couple more days.
The surprise of the evening may be Philadelphia’s win over Washington. The Sixers were supposed to be one of the worst teams in the league, but they look like they don’t really need to be Wiggins out. Their first win came against defending champs Miami Heat. Of course this win may be more of a matter that Washington is also looking for a shot at Andrew Wiggins.
Portland defeated Denver, but only because Denver couldn’t complete the comeback. Denver is also at 2 losses and no wins after losing to the Kings.
Utah strengthened their chances at Wiggins when they couldn’t overcome 14 straight points from Eric Bledsoe and the Phoenix Suns. Phoenix has 2 wins on the season and leads the Pacific Division.
The Orlando Magic blew out New Orleans. This ended the Magic bid to open the season with a record number of losses without a win.
The Bobcats defeated Cleveland. Josh McRoberts had 0 points and 8 assists from the power forward position.
Worst records: Boston, Washington, Denver, New Orleans, Utah all tied with no wins and 2 losses. Orlando has 1 win and 2 losses, which ties them with Miami.
