Meanwhile, the MVP race continues to heat up. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander went off for 48 points against the Pistons and beat the Boston Celtics, but Nikola Jokic had a near 40-point triple-double in an upset loss to the Washington Wizards. Gilgeous-Alexander appears ahead right now, but a lot can change in these final three weeks.

When the Cavaliers beat the Celtics, we saw at the end of the game something Kenny Atkinson has been experimenting with: Lineups with De'Andre Hunter at the four and Evan Mobley at center, while Jarrett Allen sits on the bench.
