Senza Carmelo Anthony e Chauncey Billups i Nuggets espugnano a sorpresa Utah grazie all’ottima prestazione dei lunghi Kenyon Martin e Nene ma soprattutto del rookie Ty Lawson (23 punti). Ray Allen e Sheed regolano i Raptors (Bargnani 21) mentre Miami si fa rimontare e battere in casa dai Bobcats di Steph Jackson. Colpo pesante dei Memphis Grizzlies che sbancano l’Arizona battendo i Suns, con un Michael Redd in grande spolvero (28 punti) i Bucks fermano a 5 la striscia vincente dei Thunder. Washington perde in casa con San Antonio ma i problemi per i Wizards sono altri in questo momento, James e i Cavs colgono la settima W consecutiva, ottimo successo degli Hornets su Houston come quello dei Bulls sui Magic.
