Overview

  • Adebayo’s 83 points in Miami’s 150-129 win over Washington rank second all-time, trailing only Wilt Chamberlain’s 100.
  • He set single-game NBA records with 36 made free throws on 43 attempts, surpassed Kobe Bryant’s 81, and broke the Heat’s franchise mark formerly held by LeBron James (61).
  • The performance prompted online scrutiny of the Wizards’ defense and the unusually high foul count that fueled the record free-throw totals.
  • Gilgeous-Alexander tied Chamberlain’s record with his 126th straight game of 20+ points, capped by a go-ahead three with 2.7 seconds left in a 129-126 win over Denver.
  • He finished that game with 35 points, a career-high 15 assists and zero turnovers, becoming only the second player since turnovers were tracked to post 35 and 15 without one, alongside LeBron James; his next chance to break the streak comes against Boston.
