April 04, 2017
Brooklyn 141, Philadelphia 118
Brook Lopez and Jeremy Lin scored 16 points each as the fast-starting Brooklyn Nets routed the Philadelphia 76ers 141-118 on Tuesday night, extending their winning streak to a season-best three games.
Washington 118, Charlotte 111
John Wall had 23 points, 13 assists and six steals as the Washington Wizards snapped a three-game losing streak with a 118-111 win over the Charlotte Hornets Tuesday night.
Cleveland 122, Orlando 102

Indiana 108, Toronto 90
Paul George had 35 points and 10 rebounds, and the Indiana Pacers snapped a four-game losing streak Tuesday night with a 108-90 victory over the Toronto Raptors.
Denver 134, New Orleans 131
Denver coach Michael Malone saw his team being left for dead after the Nuggets had lost five of seven games. But, after beating the New Orleans Pelicans 134-131 on Tuesday night to move within a half-game of Portland for the eighth and final spot in the Western Conference playoffs, the Nuggets' pulse has never been stronger.
Oklahoma City 110, Milwaukee 79
Shortly after Russell Westbrook recorded his 10th assist Tuesday night, the game was stopped. The Oklahoma City Thunder point guard walked over to his bench to get some water.
New York 100, Chicago 91
The New York Knicks once again enjoyed clouding the picture in the Eastern Conference playoff race.
San Antonio 95, Memphis 89
If nothing else was learned from the San Antonio Spurs' ragged, rugged 95-89 overtime win over the Memphis Grizzlies on Tuesday night at the AT&T Center, one thing is surely understood -- a seven-game playoff series between the two teams would be a battle.
Utah 106, Portland 87
Exterminating the injury bug is turning into an impossible mission for the Utah Jazz this season.
Golden State 121, Minnesota 107
After combining with Stephen Curry to deliver a devastating 1-2 punch to the Minnesota Timberwolves in the third quarter Tuesday night, Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson looked forward to adding a knockout blow to the arsenal.
Sacramento 98, Dallas 87
With only draft picks in question, the Sacramento Kings and Dallas Mavericks played what appeared to be a glorified exhibition game Tuesday at the Golden 1 Center.
