Luka Doncic!!! He really wanted to break the post Kobe scoring record held by Devon Booker and he pulled it off tonight. WOW. 73 points and a victory. Between Joel Embiid’s performance earlier in the week and now this you have to wonder if this signals a bit of a change in how defenses are defending stars. Will anyone ever break Wilt’s mark?
I remember last season, when Donovan Mitchell hits 60++ early on. And now this season, the mark is being pushed to 70 by Embiid and then Luka. Most likely, maybe next season we might see players going at 80, who knows.
We want to believed that 100 is not reachable by this time. But as the games evolves, it might be possible that someone is going to score 100 points with the way things are being played.
