After the 24 games played here in Week 6, the Celtics, Bucks, Cavaliers, and Hawks lead the Eastern Conference, while the Suns, Nuggets, Pelicans, and Jazz lead the Western Conference.

In Tuesday’s games, the highlight was the Suns’ victory over the Lakers by 115-105, a result that kept the Arizona team at the top of the Eastern Conference.
Playing at home, on Wednesday, the Golden State Warriors beat the LA Clippers by 124 to 107, but without conquering any position in the table – the Warriors remain in 11th in the Pacific Division. On the same day, the Nets beat the Raptors by 112-98, making the Atlantic Division even more balanced: only the Celtics have 14 wins, while the other teams have won 9 times.
