Sabonis Records Triple-Double vs. Spurs
Domantas Sabonis recorded a triple-double on Thursday with 22 points (11-of-15 FGs), 11 rebounds, 11 assists and one block in a 127-122 win over San Antonio. Sabonis extended his double-double streak to 38 games, which is the longest streak of his career. In fact, it is currently the 23rd-longest double-double streak in NBA history.
If he were to play in Sacramento’s final 27 games and record a double-double in all of them, he would move into a tie with Elvin Hayes and Jerry Lucas for the 9th-longest streak in league history. That has allowed for dominance in fantasy basketball, and his recent improvement from the free throw line has also helped. He has shot 79.5% from the line over the last month, which is a massive leap up from his season-long number of 69.7%.
Leonard Finishes with 24 Points vs. Grizzlies
Kawhi Leonard finished Friday’s win over Memphis with 24 points, eight rebounds, four assists, three steals, a block and two triples. Leonard has now scored at least 20 points in nine of his last 11, averaging 25.8 points, 5.8 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.7 steals, 0.8 blocks and 2.5 triples in that span. Leonard’s recent productive stretch isn’t anything new for him this season, as he’s ranked sixth in per-game fantasy value in 2023-24. He’ll look to stay hot in Sunday’s matchup with Pacific Division foe Sacramento.
