The team around the Serbian Nikola Jokic wins 125:100 and takes the necessary fourth victory in the best-of-7 series in game 6. For the star ensemble of the Phoenix Suns around Kevin Durant, Devin Booker and Co. the elimination in the quarterfinals is a bitter disappointment. The team from the desert state of Arizona was traded by many connoisseurs as the favorite for the title.

Just like three years ago, the Nuggets are in the Western Conference finals and can still hope for the first league title in their history. The next opponents are either the Los Angeles Lakers with living legend LeBron James or the Golden State Warriors with mega star Stephen Curry.

No decision has yet been made in the second game of the evening. The Boston Celtics save the first match point from the Philadelphia 76ers and win out 95:85. This takes the series to a deciding game 7 with Boston enjoying home field advantage. (SDA/bjl)
