Suns rout Wolves 152-114 behind 15 3s (AP)It's an NBA law of physics: Put the highest-scoring team in the league against arguably the worst defense and watch the scoreboard light up like the Fourth of July. Jason Richardson scored 27 points and Amare Stoudemire 25, then sat with the rest of the Phoenix starters while the Suns' reserves finished off a 152-114 rout of Minnesota on Monday night in the highest-scoring game by an NBA... James powers Cavs with triple-double (AP)LeBron James was shaky early and spectacular late. James had 29 points, 12 rebounds and 12 assists for his fourth triple-double of the season, lifting the Cleveland Cavaliers to a 113-101 victory over the Detroit Pistons on Tuesday night. "Every point, rebound and assist was needed," Cavs coach Mike Brown said. Manu helps surging Spurs hold off Heat (AP)San Antonio's huge lead was almost gone, Miami's building was roaring and the Heat were clicking better than they had at any point all night. With one shot, Manu Ginobili changed everything. Ginobili scored 22 points, none bigger than a tide-turning 3-pointer with 7:58 left, and the surging Spurs wasted most of a 25-point, third-quarter lead before beating the Heat 88-76 on Tuesday night,... Nuggets beat Wizards in Karl's return (AP)Nuggets coach George Karl fought through intensifying cancer treatments to return to the bench after a weeklong absence, and his players rewarded him with what Karl had told them would be the best possible medicine: a win. Carmelo Anthony scored 29 points to go with 12 rebounds, J.R. Smith scored 13 of his 17 points in the fourth quarter, and the Nuggets pulled away for a 97-87 victory Tuesday... Wizards F Howard out 6 to 8 months (AP)Washington Wizards forward Josh Howard could miss the start of next season after having surgery to repair a torn ligament in his left knee. Howard's operation was Tuesday in New York, and the Wizards said he is expected to make a full recovery in six to eight months. Howard was injured in a game against the Chicago Bulls on Feb. Lakers ride Bryant, Gasol past Kings (AP)The Los Angeles Lakers have put their three-game hiccup behind them and are closing in on their playoff form. Kobe Bryant scored 30 points, Pau Gasol added 28 points and 11 rebounds, and the Lakers completed a sweep of their Northern California swing with a 106-99 victory over the Sacramento Kings on Tuesday night. Crawford's big 2nd quarter lifts Hawks (AP)Jamal Crawford had one of those second quarters that made it a lot easier for the Atlanta Hawks to play without Joe Johnson for the first time this season. Crawford hit a 30-footer at the buzzer to cap his game-breaking, 15-point period and the Hawks ran away from the woeful New Jersey Nets, 108-84 on Tuesday night. Stuckey sits again, could return Friday (AP)Pistons coach John Kuester says he's hoping Rodney Stuckey will play Friday. Stuckey was out of the lineup Tuesday night against Cleveland, missing his sixth straight game since collapsing on the bench against the Cavs. Kuester hopes Stuckey can practice Thursday and return to action Friday, two weeks after he went off the court on a stretcher and was taken to a hospital. ]]> Short-handed Bulls lose eighth straight (AP)The Chicago Bulls -- what's left of them -- are slipping further away from the last Eastern Conference playoff spot. Undermanned because of injuries and a suspension, the Bulls dropped their eighth straight Tuesday night, as O.J. Mayo scored 24 points in the Memphis Grizzlies' 104-97 victory. Mayo connected on 8-of-12 shots from the field, including going 4 of 5 from 3-point range, as six... Pacers hold on, snap Bobcats' win streak (AP)Finally, circumstances caught up with Charlotte. The Bobcats were trying for a franchise-record seventh straight victory, but they played their fifth game in eight days on Tuesday. All-Star forward Gerald Wallace missed his second consecutive game with an injured left ankle and Indiana took advantage with a 99-94 victory. | |
