Wednesday night almost always means a full NBA schedule, and this week was no different. There were 10 games on the docket, with plenty of interesting matchups.
Early on, we got a fun point guard duel between Trae Young and Kemba Walker when the Hawks visited the Hornets. Then we saw an all-Texas showdown, as the Rockets lost to Luka Doncic and the Mavericks.
Later in the night, Jabari Parker was once again back in Milwaukee when the Bulls lost to the Bucks, and the Magic gave the Blazers everything they could handle, but eventually fell short in Portland.
