Great bucket here👉👉
Trendon Watford and Nicolas Claxton show some chemistry, with Watford’s passing from the power forward position being a rare and niche skill set
Brooklyn and Minnesota are trading buckets in the opening minutes of the first quarter.

Jalen Hood-Schifino flashes
Hood-Schifino popped for 19 points in his second game with Philadelphia on March 16th, but that is his high-scoring mark since.
The 21-year-old could be heating back up, as he dropped 18 points (6-8 FG, 5-5 FT) in Sunday’s loss to Toronto and showcases some tough-shot making early in Thursday’s contest

Tyler Herro fitted💼💼
The sixth-year guard pulls up stylish, although the lighting makes the shot.
