📅 On this day in 1971, the @Los Angeles Lakers beat the Hawks for their 21st straight win, breaking the NBA record of 20 in a row they shared with the Washington Capitols and Milwaukee Bucks.
The Lakers would go on to win 33 straight games, still the longest such streak in NBA history. pic.twitter.com/4EpYqbBMPg – 3:31 PM
