On January 26, Beijing time, today's NBA is a record night, and many players and teams have created records, as follows:
Although the Pistons lost to the Nuggets, Cunningham performed comprehensively, hitting 6 three-pointers to send 34 points, 8 boards, 8 assists, 2 breaks and 4 caps to fill the data column, not only scoring a career high, but also becoming the third single-game 6 statistics (points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, and three points) in the NBA in the past 40 years to lead the rookies of the whole team, comparable to Jordan and Iverson.
Also the Pistons Nuggets in this game, Jokic continued to be in form to cut a gorgeous quasi-triple-double with 28 points, 21 boards and 9 assists. After this game, Jokic's career total rebounds reached 5,008 and his total assists reached 3,008, while he only played 494 games, becoming the first player in NBA history to deliver at least 5,000 rebounds and 3,000 assists in 500 games.
The Clippers trailed the Wizards by as many as 35 points to complete a stunning comeback, the second-biggest reversal in history since the official record of the 1996-97 season (the play-by-play era), after the 1996 Jazz's 36-point reversal of the Nuggets.
Embiid blasted 42 points, 14 boards and 4 blocks against the Pelicans today, which was his fourth consecutive game to deliver at least 35 points and 10 boards, becoming the fourth player in the ABA-NBA to do so since the 1976-77 merger, rivaling O'Neal and Thick Brow, behind Karl Malone's 5 consecutive games. Embiid has led the scoring field in 17 consecutive games, equaling Iverson and ranking first in team history. In addition, Embiid has scored 30+ in 14 of his last 15 games, the first player in 76ers history to send a 30+ at least 14 times in 15 consecutive games.
And in the Lakers' revenge of the Nets game, James scored 33 points on 14-of-21, his 18th consecutive game of 25+, becoming the oldest player in NBA history to do so.
