Saturday delivered a loaded slate of sports drama with the NBA serving up nail-biting finishes throughout the day, including the New York Knicks rallying past the Philadelphia 76ers 112-109 on OG Anunoby’s late clutch plays after Joel Embiid’s 38-point effort and the Boston Celtics grinding out a 130-126 double overtime win over the Brooklyn Nets behind Payton Pritchard’s 32 points and a game-saving sequence from rookie Amari Williams that swung momentum in Boston’s favor.
On the college hardwood Michigan State flexed its muscle with a dominant 91-48 road win over Maryland in Big Ten play while other ranked teams like Duke and Kentucky pulled away in key victories to keep their seasons rolling.
Over in the NHL Florida’s Brad Marchand made a triumphant return scoring twice including the overtime winner in a 4-3 Panthers victory over the Minnesota Wild and Washington snapped its skid as Hendrix Lapierre’s first goal in 676 days helped lift the Capitals to a 3-1 win against Calgary.
