Late Saturday

BLAZERS 125, KINGS

99: CJ McCollum scored 37 points, making six 3-pointers, and Portland coasted to a victory over Sacramento on Saturday night. The Trail Blazers led by as many as 31 and faced little resistance from a Kings team that gave up 144 points to Toronto just a night earlier.

BUCKS 100, CAVALIERS 90: Khris Middleton scored 27 points and Milwaukee withstood the absence of two-time reigning MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo to beat Cleveland on Saturday night. Antetokounmpo sat out with back spasms after taking a hard fall one night earlier in a loss to the Utah Jazz.

HEAT 128, WIZARDS 124: With Washington playing without its three leading scorers, Miami picked up its intensity, held the Wizards to 15 points in the third quarter and won on Saturday night. Tyler Herro scored a careerhigh 31 points and Jimmy Butler nearly had a tripledouble with 26 points, 10 rebounds and nine assists.

SUNS 125, PACERS 117:

Mikal Bridges scored a career-high 34 points and made the 3-pointer to cap the decisive scoring spurt midway through the fourth quarter, helping the Phoenix Suns pull away from Indiana for a 125-117 victory Saturday. NUGGETS 115, 76ERS 103: Nikola Jokic had 15 points and 12 assists to lead Denver past Philadelphia on Saturday, beating a 76ers team that had only seven available players. The Sixers tipped without four regular starters — All-Stars Ben Simmons (sore left knee) and Joel Embiid (back) sat due to injury, and Seth Curry and Tobias Harris over virus concerns.
