Enjoy the New Year
There are only 3 games in the NBA today, but the performance of the stars is still remarkable, and the data of Brother Alphabet, Klay, George, Sexton, GG Jackson, Edwards and others are good.
But if you want to choose the best player of the day, there is no suspense, let's take a look at the specific situation!
The Bucks lost to the Grizzlies on the road, and Brother Alphabet played efficiently, but he was still powerless to save the Lord. In the first half, he shot 6-of-6 from the field and 1-of-2 from the free-throw line to finish with 13 points, 1 rebound and 7 assists.
In the whole game, Brother Alphabet played 37 minutes, 15 of 17 shots, 5 of 9 free throws, and 35 points, 4 rebounds and 12 assists.
GG Jackson scored 19 points in the first half, setting a new personal high for a half.
In the whole game, he played 30 minutes, shooting 10 of 17, including 6 of 10 three-pointers, 1 of 3 free throws, 27 points, 1 rebound and 1 block, with a game-high plus/minus of +12.
Statistically, GG Jackson became the third junior (13-19) player in history to score 16+ in five consecutive games and shoot at least 50% from the field, the first two being Zion and Irving.
Although they failed to help the team win the game, the Jazz backcourt double-shot Sexton and George, the two of whom can be said to be standing to death, teamed up to blow the Warriors out.
Sexton punches the punch
In the first half, Sexton scored and passed the ball, shooting 3-of-6 from the field, 2-of-4 from three-point range, and 6-of-6 from the free-throw line to finish with 14 points and 6 assists.
In the second half, he continued to storm the basket frantically, and in the final quarter, he and Markkanen almost completed an 18-point comeback. It's a pity that the final draw and three points hit the iron, and it is a pity to lose.
In the whole game, Sexton played 34 minutes, shooting 10-of-18 from the field, 3-of-8 from three-point range, and 12-of-13 from the free-throw line, finishing with 35 points, 3 rebounds and 9 assists.
George tied the NBA record with nine three-pointers
George, a rookie from the Jazz, can be said to have stolen Curry's three-point skill pack today. In the first half, he scored 18 points on 6-of-7 shooting from the field and added three assists.
In the game, George played 41 minutes, shooting 11-of-22, 9-of-16 three-pointers, 2-of-3 free throws, and scoring a career-high 33 points, plus 2 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 steals.
The nine three-pointers in a single game also tied the NBA all-time rookie single-game three-point record.
The Timberwolves beat the Trail Blazers on the road, and Edwards was another game of dimensionality reduction. In the first quarter, he was on fire, playing 12 minutes, shooting 5-of-8, and scoring 13 points, 3 assists, 1 steal and 1 block in a single quarter.
In the whole game, Huazi played 32 and a half points, shooting 12 of 21, 3 of 7 three-pointers, 7 of 8 free throws, and scored 34 points, 6 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals and 1 block, filling the data column.
According to statistics, this is the 26th time in Edwards' career that he has scored 30 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists, tying Towns and tying for second in Timberwolves history.
But even so, the best player of the day still can't be given to him, because Clay next door is even more explosive.
The person who was able to beat so many of the above stars to be voted the best player of the day must have done something amazing, and that person today is undoubtedly Klay.
This is the first time Klay has played as a substitute since starting 721 games. The reason is that yesterday against the Clippers, he was a criminal. But although this was a substitute game, Clay actually knew his shame and broke out.
He played seven minutes in the first quarter, shooting 4-of-7 from the field and 2-of-4 from three-point range, finishing with 10 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist. In the first half, he was 7-of-11 from the field and 3-of-6 from three-point range, and he had 17 points, three rebounds and two assists.
In the second half, he didn't lose his firepower, and in the third quarter, he came up in microwave mode, playing 2+1 plus 4 three-pointers in a row, and scored 18 points in 6 of 7 in a single quarter, helping the team almost spoil the game.
In the whole game, Klay played 28 minutes, shooting 13-of-22, 7-of-13 three-pointers, 2-of-2 free throws, and blasted 35 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists.
At the same time, Clay also set 2 records in this battle:
1. With these 35 points, Clay's career total score also exceeded 15,000 points.
2. Klay's 35 points is the Warriors' single-game record for bench scoring since Ian Clarke in 2017.
So, the best player of the day is definitely him!
