    I don’t think it matters on that team.

    We just saw what he can be at his best. That is an mvp type. Assuming he can't repeat this nightly I think kpj is likely a 20/6/6 borderline all-star. What really is tantalizing is how good he could also be on d.

    which shouldn't really be a surprise to anyone. I really wonder why some people around here were down on him after some bad games. He's 20.

    This is exactly what i thought he would be at his absolute best.

    Kind of surprised and impressed by you all Clutchfans. After how pathetic he looked the game right before this breakout masterpiece, I’m legitimately shocked to see that nobody bumped this with a hot take about him being trash.

    Tonight gave me hope again. Hopeful that he builds on this and this catapults him to greater heights. This has to be really good for his confidence. Dropping 50 and 11 on elite efficiency should make you feel legitimatized.

    Is he the youngest player ever to get at least 50 pts and 10 assists?

    Yes. He's three years younger than LBJ when he did it.

    What an incredible game. Youngest player to get 50 and 10, only the fourth player to score 50 before turning 21, and we beat the bucks. That fourth quarter he was giving me Harden vibes. That was a lot of fun to watch.
