Here’s your latest NBA Rewind! There are a couple of Western Conference teams that the public, outside of understandably biased fan bases, just refuses to accept as a threat in the West. The Houston Rockets and LA Clippers have been proving themselves left and right lately.

The Knicks have won three in a row. They scored 143 points in a blowout win against the Kings. Four Knicks players scored 20-plus points. New York has one of the league's best starting lineups, but the bench is filled with questionable players.

The Thunder split their four games since beating Cleveland in a rematch of the league’s top two teams. They got back on track Sunday with a 118-108 win at Portland after a rare home loss to Dallas in the second of a back-to-back. OKC is 20-3 at home.

James Harden scored 17 of his 40 points in the third quarter and Norman Powell added 33 points as the Los Angeles Clippers finished off a 127-117 victory over the visiting Milwaukee Bucks at Inglewood,

Jayson Tatum led the way with 24 points, six rebounds and three assists. Bridges has become one of the best dunkers in the NBA, and this slam shows why. He has six points, three rebounds and three assists. Charlotte leads New Orleans after the first quarter, 31-23.

The Kings are listing point guard De’Aaron Fox as questionable due to a right thumb sprain. Knicks shooting guard Josh Hart is questionable because of right knee soreness.

Joker is averaging 14.9 boards per game in January, and he’s had 13 or more in five of his past six contests. With Gobert and Julius Randle giving the Timberwolves a strong one-two punch on the glass, Jokic will need to bring his A-game here.

The Lakers delivered their best victory of the season with a rout of the defending NBA champion Boston Celtics.

Nikola Jokic had 35 points, 22 rebounds and a season-high 17 assists for his fifth straight triple-double, and the host Denver Nuggets held on to beat the Sacramento Kings 132-123 on Thursday night.

LeBron James is extending his All-Star records. The NBA revealed the starters — some of them, anyway — for the revamped All-Star Game on Thursday night, and there wasn’t much in the way of surprises.
