NBA Daily Recap, November 26 – Wizards slump to another defeat, Durant’s return deflates Lakers

Kevin Durant returned from injury in style, leading the Phoenix Suns back to their winning ways.

Tuesday night’s NBA action was headlined by Kevin Durant who made a successful return from injury to guide the Phoenix Suns to a dominant win over Los Angeles Lakers. Damian Lillard and Victor Wembanyama also shone for their teams in convincing wins.

Take a look at how Tuesday’s NBA game night unfolded:

Wizards 108-127 Bulls

Nikola Vucevic anchored the Chicago Bulls with a double-double, scoring 19 points and grabbing 12 rebounds as they breezed past the Washington Wizards in an NBA Cup matchup.

Despite Kyle Kuzma’s 23-point effort, Washington’s 0-3 Cup record confirmed their elimination from quarterfinal contention.

Bucks 106-103 Heat

Damian Lillard led the Bucks charge with a 37-point, 12-assist performance, lifting the Milwaukee Bucks to a hard-fought win against the Miami Heat.

The Bucks, who let a 22-point second-half lead slip away, leaned on Lillard’s late-game heroics to secure their fifth straight victory.

Houston, now 3-0 in West Group A, secured a quarterfinal spot in the NBA Cup.

Spurs 128-115 Jazz

Victor Wembanyama continued his red-hot form with another electrifying 34-point performance, including seven rebounds, three blocks, and six three-pointers, leading the San Antonio Spurs to a 128-115 victory over the Jazz. With this win, the Spurs improved to 10-8 on the season.

Suns 127-100 Lakers

The return of Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal put an end to the Phoenix Suns’ five-game with a statement win over the Los Angeles Lakers. The duo each scored 23 points, while Devin Booker led the third-quarter charge to hand the Suns a 127-100 win. Booker finished with a game-high 26 points.

Anthony Davis posted a double-double with 25 points and 15 rebounds for the Lakers, but it wasn’t enough to stop their slide to a third straight defeat.
