Impressive productivity: Sabonis sets a new career record for NBA performance in just three quarters



[ad_1]

The fight at the Milwaukee Fiserv Forum Stadium took place only in the first quarter of the game. Midway through the second half, the hosts parted ways until 35:57, and after twelve unanswered points in the third quarter, the question about the winner of the match was no longer in doubt: 61:88.

Domantas Sabonis became the Pacers’ only ray of hope in the third half. The highest scored 15 of the 21 teams scored during the quarter, but their efforts to maintain the intrigue weren’t enough.

Sitting on the bench at the end of the half and no longer getting up from it, Sabas finished his performance by setting a new record for his NBA career. In just 31 minutes played, Domas scored 33 points (11/20 doubles, 3/5 trit., 2/2 penalties), 12 rebounds, 6 assists and two errors and personal fouls.

In the game with the Memphis Grizzlies, which was played less than 24 hours ago, the Lithuanian repeated the previous personal best result with 32 points. In the last five games, Domantas has registered an astonishing average of 26 points, 11 rebounds and 6 assists.

No less impressive was Giannis Antetokounmpo, who has been recognized as the most useful basketball player in the NBA for the past two seasons. The Greek, who also saw the fourth half from the country, scored a triple-double against him with 21 points, 14 rebounds and 10 assists.

Visits to Milwaukee in recent years have turned into a true nightmare for Pacers basketball players. Indianapolis basketball players, who were up to 40 points behind in the final quarter of the game, lost to the Bucks team at their stadium for the fifth time in a row, and the home team won these games by a total of 100 points. .
