    I was gonna say that has to be an all-time record and then remembered Wilt existed

  2. Absolutely incredible. Nearly a triple double as well. Also, PRAY FOR DAMAR HAMLIN.

    That’s some actual 2k shit. Spida would be good competition for my MyLeague player, Admiral Ball Queen.

    He’s like if Wade had an elite 3 point shot. Just pure talent, offensive juggernaut

    This is the 50th time I’ve seen this stat in the last minute

    This is honestly more impressive to me than Kobe’s game.

    Not to mention Chicago is an average defensive team (15th) while the raptors were 28th in the league. AND he almost got a triple double.

    He’s like the anti-Gobert. Single handedly carrying the offense

    As far as I can tell (I’m not statmuse), this is the 2nd most points created in NBA history, though it would be tied for 5th in regulation games I believe.

    Wilt – 104 (100 point game)

    Mitchell – 99 (71/11/8)

    Harden – 96 (53/16/17)

    Harden – 92 (56/13) (blowout, record of 90 through 3 quarters)

    Harden – 86 (60 point triple double)

    Kobe – 86 (81 point game)

    Luka – 85 (60 point triple double)

    The most since Wilt.. this man could’ve easily got a 90 ball last night..

    Insane.

    Wrong choice of words. He was responsible for 71 points. He contributed to 99 points. Saying he was responsible for those 28 points off assists makes it sound like they were all putbacks and the guys taking the shot aren’t the ones actually scoring the bucket.
