📅 On this day in 1974, the Braves’ Ernie DiGregorio set an NBA rookie record – as well as a franchise record – by dishing out 25 assists in a 120-119 win over the Blazers.
Both records still stand, although the rookie mark was tied by the Sonics’ Nate McMillan in 1987. pic.twitter.com/CVn3sHMUse3:01 PM

Josh Lewenberg: For the first time in 2 weeks, the Raptors don’t have anybody in the COVID protocols. Isaac Bonga has been cleared, and DJ Wilson’s hardship 10-day expired today. Scottie Barnes (knee) is probable for tomorrow’s game vs New York. Raps are nearing full strength. -via Twitter @JLew1050 / January 1, 2022
