A six-game NBA slate took place on Monday night with Tony Parker's return to San Antonio headlining the action.

The night started with the Nets holding off a wild comeback attempt from the Kyrie Irving-less Celtics to get an important win. Things got a lot more interesting as Parker made his first visit to San Antonio since leaving the franchise he won four NBA titles with. Parker played his entire 17-year career with the Spurs before signing a two-year deal with the Hornets.

The night capped off with an interesting conference matchup between Anthony Davis's New Orleans Pelicans and the Los Angeles Clippers. In the end, Davis was just too much for L.A. as he led the Pelicans to victory.

Here's everything you need to know about Monday night's NBA action, along with Tuesday's schedule.

It was his 17th consecutive game with 30 or more points, passing Kobe Bryant for the most since the ABA-NBA merger.
