1/2/2023 - Donovan Mitchell puts up a statline of 71/8/11 on 22/34 shooting (7/15 3pt, 20/25 FT) in an OT win vs Chicago
Damian Lillard responds:
1/25/2023 - 60/7/8/3stl on 21/29 shooting (9/15 3pt, 9/10 FT) W vs Utah, highest scoring game since Mitchell's 71
Tonight - 22/38 shooting (13/22 3pt, 14/14 FT) with 6 reb/ast to go with his own 71 points.
Admittedly it was on a ton of shots and he was just flat out embarrassing a completely putrid team ('22-'23 Rockets). Still impressive, and it shows we'll see Kobe's 81 be broken sooner than we think, somehow, some way.
