Five regular season games are played in the National Basketball Association.
Sacramento lost its last chance to directly qualify for the NBA playoffs. Last night, the team in which Alexey Len played lost to their main competitor for a place in the top six – New Orleans.
It was the fourth loss in the last five matches for the Kings, and now they have to fight for a spot in the playoffs through the play-in stage.
The Ukrainian center spent 11 minutes 23 seconds on the court, scoring two points, making one rebound and making one assist.
Let’s also note Utah’s win over Houston. That’s why the Jazzmen broke their “black streak” of 13 straight losses.
