Nets steal Oklahoma’s Thunder
Print Edition
BROOK Lopez scored 18 points in his first regular-season game in about 11 months as the Brooklyn Nets routed the injury-depleted Oklahoma City Thunder 116-85 on Monday in their National Basketball Association home opener.
Alan Anderson added 18 points and Deron Williams had 17 points and nine assists for the Nets, who got their leading scorer back on a night the Thunder, already without Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook, lost yet another player to injury.
Reggie Jackson scored 23 points in his season debut after missing the first three games with a sprained right ankle, but the Thunder left just as short-handed as they entered when starting guard Andre Roberson sprained his left foot. He played just 11 1/2 minutes of the first half.
Lopez was averaging a team-best 20.7 points when he broke his right foot last December 20 against Philadelphia and had season-ending surgery. He was back for the start of training camp but sprained the foot during an exhibition game in China and missed the Nets’ first two games.
Also, the Memphis Grizzlies improved to a club-best 4-0 start with a 93-81 win over the New Orleans Pelicans while elsewhere it was: Rockets 104, 76ers 93; Mavericks 118, Celtics 113; Kings 110, Nuggets 105; and Clippers 107, Jazz 101.
