This wasn’t only the NBA Night of Domantas Sabonis’ 36th career triple-double, as other two European big men went crazy on the stat sheet for their respective team’s victories.
Nikola Jokic, for example, continues on his great personal run, leading the Denver Nuggets to the 122-117 win against Brooklyn on the road with an excellent shooting night (10/15 2FG, 2/2 3FG, 5/5 FT) and a double-double of 31 points and 11 rebounds, including 7 assists and 3 steals as well.
Without Luka Doncic, the Dallas Mavericks lost the Texan derby against the Houston Rockets 122-96, pushed by another magician on the court: Alperen Sengun. The 21-year-old Turkish star, in fact, led his team with another double-double of 22 points (8/12 from the field and 5/5 at the line) and 15 rebounds.
