Justin Kubatko @jkubatko Draymond Green last night:
✅ 5 PTS
✅ 10 REB
✅ 8 AST
It’s the 117th time Green has recorded more rebounds and assists than points scored.
The only active player with more such games is Rajon Rondo (135). pic.twitter.com/ntgGhmFGj19:46 AM

Anthony Puccio @APOOCH Pretty remarkable the Nets are in 1st despite no Kyrie Irving + an inconsistent James Harden.
Shows just how good Kevin Durant has been this year. – 9:10 AM

Eric Walden @tribjazz When Rudy Gobert picked up his fourth foul just 1:22 into the 3Q on Wednesday night, everyone knew Rudy Gay was gonna get extended minutes. What wasn’t so fait accompli was how well Bojan Bogdanovic and Royce O’Neale would fare in fending off KAT. https://t.co/Ofq3mqhXDy pic.twitter.com/Sq0tVnpSk87:02 AM

Anthony Puccio @APOOCH James Harden could’ve been the first player in NBA history to drop 40 points against all 30 teams vs. Houston tonight.
He’s yet to score 40+ points in a game this season — the longest stretch he’s gone without scoring 40+ points to a start a season since 2013-14 (49 games in). pic.twitter.com/jPIMRE8PP22:04 AM

Gary Washburn @GwashburnGlobe Marcus Morris fouls take Tatum on a drive, two FTS – 1:10 AM
Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU Jayson Tatum gets a steal, offensive rebound, bucket to cut lead to 3
Then Marcus Morris doubles LA’s lead by making only his 2nd 3. He had missed 4 of first 5, but it’s clutch time.
LA up 111-105, 43.5 seconds left. Celtics and Clippers fans are hype. – 1:02 AM
Gary Washburn @GwashburnGlobe Marcus Morris late shot-clock 3 with 43.5 left and #Clippers are up 6. LAC with three 3-pointers over the last three minutes to keep #Celtics at bay. – 1:02 AM
Jay King @ByJayKing Marcus Morris Sr. with a clutch bucket over a good Al Horford contest. – 1:01 AM
