The National Basketball Association played nine regular season games last night.
Ukraine center Alexey Len is back on the court after injury. We remind you that the Sacramento basketball player was injured on November 13, and since then he has not missed 19 matches of the “kings”.
The comeback took place last night in a match against Portland. The Ukrainian spent less than two minutes on court and did not make any impact.
Sacramento unexpectedly suffered a heavy defeat from one of the league’s outsiders 113:130.
The Oklahoma match also ended in an unexpected loss for the visitors. The local “Thunderbolts” hosted the leader of the Western Conference, Minnesota, and easily defeated it 129:106.
