The Lakers got themselves a nice win over the Damian Lillard-less Portland Trailblazers. LeBron James and Anthony Davis both had big nights.

The Cleveland Cavs got another win over 76ers. They beat them by 28 and have the 5th best record in the league now. Biggest surprise of the season for sure. I thought theyd be tanking for the draft.

I agree with you, the Cleveland Cavaliers are one of the most interesting teams this year. Their performance so far is very good, they have managed to win almost as many games as the Bucks. When we look at the Bucks' roster, we see that there are much better players, but I can't say that there are as many good players in the Cleveland Cavaliers.
This means that it is possible to be one of the best teams in the league without the big star players

Speaking of the Bucks roster, it looks like Khris Middleton will be back in the lineup for them this Friday against the Lakers. Its been a long time since the Bucks have had their #2 player. It will certainly make them better.

How about DeAndre Ayton lately? Hes playing like a man possessed. Him and Devon Booker put on a show last night being the first Suns teammates to ever score 50 and 30 in the same game!

I guess DeAndre Ayton deserved the max contract he had, the management was right for giving him a big salary despite his young age. One thing I see that makes Ayton more productive is his chemistry with his teammates, they seemed to have great communication and Ayton knows how to position well that's why he can also grab some offensive rebounds.

He was denied a max contract because they think that he has not deserved it, while his co rookies has been offered, but Ayton was not so somewhat he might be bitter. However, it seems that he has done his share and really performing better this year.

So hopefully once his contract expires or maybe he will opt to get out so that he can test the market, that will be good.

But if the Suns management doesn't want to let go of Ayton, then for sure he might get his max contract extension.
