Mavs list Santi Aldama as probable for Friday’s NBA Cup group stage game vs Utah. His last game was Feb 4 w/ Memphis and he had right knee surgery in March. Aldama gives the Mavs a needed stretch big. Courtesy of my friends at @Stathead, he’s 5th in 3ptM by 7-footers since 2023-24. Coincidentally the Mavs see the player first on the list tomorrow, Lauri Markkanen of the Jazz

Jalen Brunson recorded 22 points in the 1st quarter on 8-of-10 shooting. He has the highest scoring quarter of any player in the league this year. It's also the 3rd highest scoring quarter of his career, per @Stathead.

The Timberwolves have scored 952 points so far this season. That is the most in franchise history over the first eight games of a season. They have scored at least 110 points in every game, four of which have come without their best player in the lineup.

Tyrese Maxey is the first player in NBA History to record three 15+ point 4th quarters in the month of October in a single season. He also tied Kyrie Irving (73) for the most 4th quarter points scored in October in a single season in NBA History. Special start to the season. (via @Stathead)

Yaxel Lendeborg became only the 2nd rookie to record that kind of statline in regulation, per @Stathead. Trae Young also did it, but played 4OT in that contest.

Darius Acuff had 34 points, 13 assists, six rebounds and two steals tonight. Michael Jordan, Steve Francis, LeBron James and Stephen Curry are the only other rookies in NBA history to match or exceed all four of those marks in a single game.

We've witnessed historic basketball in the last week. Clippers' 20.6 turnover percentage (turnovers per 100 plays) is now tied for the 5th highest in a 4-game span to start a season in NBA history, per @Stathead.

Since 2021, the #Cowboys haven’t won a game where they’ve scored 18 points or less. Conversely, Dallas has the 5th-most wins when they score 21 or more points in a game. Brandon Aubrey’s importance seems even more significant now. (via @Stathead, @pfref)

In the context of NBA history, dropping 40+ points at 6'2 and 38 years old is literally unheard of. The oldest player other than Steph even under 6'5 to drop 40 is Dame, who had 43 at age 34. Steph has now scored 40 or more 21 times since turning 34, breaking a tie with Michael Jordan for the most such games in league history. (h/t @stathead)

After his 47-point performance tonight in Cleveland, Anthony Edwards has now scored 133 points in four games this season. That is the most by any player in Timberwolves history through the first four games of the season. The previous high was 120, which Edwards set in 2024.

Ty Jerome is averaging 29.8 PPG on 63.6% TS through four games. Per @Stathead, this has happened 64 times to start a season. The only guys to do it and never be named to an All-Star team are Austin Reaves and Eddie Johnson. Jerome All-Star season brewing?

The Sports Equinox is today! So here's a wild connect, bit of an Immaculate Grid type of deal: -On the diamond, all 10 of the MLB players at some point played for the Astros or Dodgers. -On the ice, all but Karlsson played for the Rangers or Islanders.

Zaccharie Risacher has 5 blocks and 7 steals through the three games. Only 8 other Mavericks have matched or exceeded those numbers over a three game span the last twenty years. (@Stathead & @bball_ref) This is a good list of guys...
