The NBA week from March 5 to March 11, 2026, saw a significant shift in momentum as road teams claimed nearly 60% of contested games. While the Thunder and Celtics continued to battle for the best overall record, the middle of the Western Conference became a logjam, with only two games separating the fifth and tenth seeds. The week was punctuated by several individual 50-point performances and a noticeable uptick in league-wide scoring averages as teams prioritized offensive transition play.
