NBA Roundup: Big Nights, Big Comebacks Mark Busy Wednesday Slate

It was another action-packed night in the NBA on Wednesday, January 21, as star performances, fourth-quarter rallies, and offensive explosions highlighted a busy slate across the league.

Suns hold off 76ers in tight road win

The Phoenix Suns leaned on balance and timely scoring to edge the Philadelphia 76ers, 116-110, on the road. Phoenix broke the game open with a dominant 40-point third quarter, creating enough separation to withstand a late Sixers push. Grayson Allen paced the Suns with 16 points and six assists, while rookie VJ Edgecombe led Philadelphia with 25 points and seven rebounds in defeat.

Bulls overwhelm Clippers behind explosive second quarter

Chicago delivered one of the night’s most lopsided results, blowing past the Los Angeles Clippers, 138-110, at home. The Bulls poured in 45 points in the second quarter alone, completely flipping the game’s momentum. John Collins finished with 23 points for the Clippers, but Chicago’s depth shined, led by Tre Jones’ all-around effort of 15 points, eight rebounds, and 10 assists.

Rockets rally late to stun Spurs

Houston survived a late scare and came away with a 111-106 win over the San Antonio Spurs after closing strong in the fourth quarter. Alperen Sengun anchored the Rockets with a near triple-double—20 points, 13 rebounds, and nine assists—while Julian Champagnie carried San Antonio with 27 points and eight boards in the loss.

Jazz outlast Timberwolves in scoring duel

In Salt Lake City, the Utah Jazz edged the Minnesota Timberwolves, 127-122, behind a scorching performance from Keyonte George, who erupted for 43 points. Anthony Edwards did everything he could to keep Minnesota close, finishing with 38 points and eight rebounds, but Utah’s late-game execution sealed the win.
