Timberwolves: 7 straight over the Mavericks.

Tonight: 133-94. Minnesota's most lopsided win of the season, and Dallas' worst loss.

The Mavs scored a season-low 94 — first time under 100 — and shot 37.2%.

@MySportsUpdate got his sneak from the 11 overturned, then tried to freeze washington with a song that came out when he was 6, and still took a delay of game on 4th-and-1. they punted from their own 7. jameis will be jameis

@TheHoopCentral wild he also just went past rick barry (18,395 nba points). t-mac needed 938 games for 18,381, booker's doing this in his 748th, and he only passed dr. j two nights ago

[Sports Data Center @SportsDataCtr]

@NBA @DetroitPistons he's also the first piston ever with 50 and 10, and ausar just got his first career triple-double (17/11/11). crazy that washington still lost with young, davis and sarr all at 30+, their first trio like that since 1969

[Sports Data Center @SportsDataCtr]

@astros he's just the third astros mvp ever, after bagwell in '94 and altuve in '17, and like bagwell he got every first-place vote (all 30). led the majors this year at .316/.432/.601 with a career-high 42 homers

[Sports Data Center @SportsDataCtr]

@NBA nobody's done 50 and 10 with zero turnovers since they started tracking them in 1977-78. he already had 40 and 10 after regulation, then 12 more in the two OTs, and never gave it away in almost 48 minutes

[Sports Data Center @SportsDataCtr]

@UnderdogNBA His old career high was 46 against these same Wizards on Nov. 10, 2025, and that one took 45 shots. A year and two days later he drops 52 on just 25 shots, going 17 of 18 at the line without a single turnover in a double-overtime win.

Congratulations!

@UnderdogNBA Mobley scored 20+ four times from Oct. 24 to Nov. 6, averaging 19.3 over those eight games, then managed just 31 points total in his last three. Cleveland is 6-6 and now heads to Miami for Friday's NBA Cup game without him.

@statmuse The efficiency is the scary part: 63.4% on twos, a 38.5 PER and a +16.6 box plus/minus, all in 30 minutes a night. Per 36 that's 36.3 points and 5.3 blocks, and he's been +23 or better in each of his last five games.

Back where it started: Atlanta drafted Phillips in the 17th round in 2015 and he debuted for the Braves in 2018. He then posted a 2.36 ERA in 232 games as a Dodger, and in his first year back from Tommy John he struck out 31.1% of hitters while walking just 5.7%. The deal works out to about $11.7M a year, up from his $6.5M in 2026.

Patrick Mahomes: 2,024 yards from history.

37,976 career passing yards in 134 games

Fewest games to 40,000: Stafford, 147

Mahomes needs 168.7 YPG over his next 12 to break it

He's averaging 254.6 in 2026
That record is already gone.

Indiana fell from No. 4 to No. 9 without playing, and 7-2 Alabama, Texas and Tennessee all sit ahead of the 8-1 Hoosiers. The committee's real knock is the offense: 44.2 points and 489.6 yards a game through the first five weeks, then 17.8 and 332 over the last four. Saturday against No. 18 USC is the chance to answer it.

LeBron James: 15.1 PPG.

That's the lowest of his 24 seasons, by 5.8 points.

His previous low was 20.9, twice: as a rookie in 2003-04 and again last season.

He's shooting 23.7% from three, also a career low (old low: 29.0% as a rookie).
23 straight seasons at 20.9 or better, and now this. It's not a slump, it's the first real cliff of his career.

@UnderdogNBA Barnes had been averaging 23.5 points, 7.6 rebounds, 5.1 assists and 2.3 steals through 8 games, including a 41-point night against Orlando. Toronto went 4-4 with him and 1-2 in the 3 games he's missed, and Thursday in Philly makes it 4 straight on the sideline since Nov. 4.

[Sports Data Center @SportsDataCtr]

Curry had 278 points in 263 minutes this season, the second-most points per minute in a season ever per StatMuse, while averaging 27.8 a night on under 2 turnovers. The Houston loss already snapped Golden State's 8-game win streak, and now the Warriors go at least two weeks without their engine.
