The @Minnesota Timberwolves Anthony Edwards appeared in his 200th NBA game last night.
Edwards, Luka Doncic, and Damian Lillard are the only players in NBA history to score at least 4,000 points with 500 3P made through the first 200 games of their career.

In the Sixers last two losses they:

Denver’s little “let’s see what happens if we try to play an entire half without any orchestrated offense at all” experiment is certainly a unique gambit.
Don’t see that much in the modern NBA. Combining it with “Let’s give up 65 in a half” is just the cherry on top I guess. – 8:02 PM

Jamal Murray last night:
✅ 41 PTS
✅ 5 REB
✅ 7 AST
Murray has recorded at least 30p/5r/5a in each of his last three games.
That matches the longest such streak in @Denver Nuggets history shared by Nikola Jokic (four times) and Alex English.
