Happy Friday, and happy NBA Appreciation Day, everyone! I was hoping for this post to be about the end of the NBA lockout, but I guess it wasn’t meant to be. On the bright side, maybe next week! Also on the bright side, you get another chance to see what happens when I’m forced to pick my brain…
As of November 14th, 2007, 33 points was Rashad McCants’ career-high. He one-upped himself (litterally one-upped, scoring 34 against Denver) a couple months later, but that performance came in a Minnesota loss. It also came in a game during which the scoreboard was lit up for a total of 225 points. Keep in mind that we’re flashing back to 2007/2008 here… back when dropping 34 on the Nuggs would be comparable to doing so against the Knicks or Warriors of today. So, I’d say the 33-points he hung on the Kings may very well represent the finest performance of his brief NBA career. His individual highlights from this performance just so happen to be kickin’ around on Youtube. I apologize
