NBA historical past: @Dame_Lillard simply had essentially the most environment friendly 60+ level sport of all time.
Among all gamers to drop a minimum of 60 factors, no one had ever accomplished it on 88% true capturing or higher.
Dame’s 60 factors on 89.8% TS eclipses James Harden’s 60 on 87.9% TS from 2019.
