Follow the action from a 10-game night in the NBA, featuring Cavaliers-Celtics, Lakers-Timberwolves and Nikola Jokić's quest for a triple-double milestone.

First, the Thunder played a double-overtime thriller against the new-look Houston Rockets, holding on to win 125-124 in an instant classic. And in California, the LeBron James-less Los Angeles Lakers lost their home opener 119-109 to the Golden State Warriors.

Luka Doncic scored 49 points and became the fourth player in NBA history to begin a season with back-to-back 40-point performances, leading the Los Angeles Lakers to a 128-110 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday night.

The Los Angeles Clippers are just 1-4 ATS this season compared to a 4-2 mark for the Miami Heat. It’s tough to trust a team that got thrashed by the Utah Jazz in the opener and needed a Kawhi Leonard game-winner to get past the winless New Orleans Pelicans.

In Monday's overtime win over the Suns, Markkanen became the first Jazz player to score at least 50 points since 1998.

NBA season, going toe-to-toe with the defending champion Oklahoma City Thunder before ultimately coming up just short in a game that took two overtimes to sort out.

The NBA’s return to NBC is part of an 11-year, $76 billion rights package spread across ESPN/ABC, NBC/Peacock and Amazon’s Prime Video. NBC will air primetime games on Tuesdays throughout the season, and Sundays after its NFL commitments end, and Peacock will have streaming-exclusive games on Monday nights.
