Cooper Flagg breaks record: The basketball player became on Friday the youngest player to surpass 50 points in the NBA, although his display did not prevent the Dallas Mavericks from losing to the Orlando Magic on a day with no changes in the standings after victories by the Boston Celtics, New York Knicks and Houston Rockets.<\/p>\n

Flagg, who is still fighting for the ‘Rookie of the Year’ award, finished the game with 51 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 steals and a block for only one loss. He shot 19-of-30 from the field (63.3%), including 6-of-9 from three-point range (66.7%).<\/p>\n

Flagg makes history, but Magic takes the win<\/h2>\n

Cooper Flagg became the first player under the age of 20 to surpass 50 points in an NBA<\/a> game.<\/p>\n

Despite their numbers, the Mavericks, who have been eliminated from contention for weeks, lost 127-138 to the Magic, who are looking to get out of the East playoffs.<\/p>\n

Paolo Banchero had a very discreet game with only 10 points, but Wendell Carter Jr. with 28 or Desmond Bane with 27 took the reins for Orlando.<\/p>\n

The win for the Orlando Magic (41-36) proved sterile, as none of their direct rivals – Atlanta Hawks, Toronto Raptors, Charlotte Hornets and Philadelphia 76ers – failed on Friday.<\/p>\n

The Hawks defeated the Brooklyn Nets 107-141, and the 76ers won 115-103 over the Minnesota Timberwolves.<\/p>\n

Hawks and 76ers currently occupy the last two playoff spots in the East.<\/p>\n

In addition, the Hornets beat the Indiana Pacers 129-108 and the Raptors defeated the Memphis Grizzlies 96-128 (Filed under: Cooper Flagg breaks record).<\/p>\n

Celtics and Knicks wins<\/h2>\n

If nothing changed in the battle for the bottom of the playoffs in the East, neither did it change at the top.<\/p>\n

This follows wins by the Boston Celtics over the Milwaukee Bucks (101-133) and the New York Knicks over the Chicago Bulls (136-96).<\/p>\n

The Celtics are second with a 2.5-win margin over the Knicks.<\/p>\n

An order that is very difficult to change with five games left for Boston and four for New York in this regular season.<\/p>\n

OG Anunoby was the Knicks’ top scorer with 31 points tonight at Madison Square Garden.<\/p>\n

While Jayson Tatum, who fell one pass shy of his first triple-double of the season (23-11-9) led the Celtics’ win at Wisconsin (Filed under: Cooper Flagg breaks record).<\/p>\n

5 for Houston<\/h2>\n

In a day with little activity in the West, the Houston Rockets took advantage of the Timberwolves’ stumble in Philadelphia to secure fifth place with a 140-106 victory over the Utah Jazz, their fifth in a row.<\/p>\n

Kevin Durant scored 25 points, with another 21 points from Amen Thompson.<\/p>\n

The Rockets are just one win behind the Denver Nuggets and two behind the Los Angeles Lakers, who received the terrible news that Luka Doncic’s injury (a grade 2 hamstring strain) will keep him out “indefinitely”.<\/p>\n

In Friday’s final game, the Sacramento Kings beat the New Orleans Pelicans 117-113 (Filed under: Cooper Flagg breaks record).<\/p>\n
