Daily Recap- Nov. 16.

Who Was Hot

Stephen Curry (Golden State PG)- Scored 30 points and dished out 15 assists in a 128-99 win over the Los Angeles Lakers Sunday night. Curry shot 10-19 from the field, hitting five three-pointers in the blowout.

Marreese Speights (Golden State PF)- Scored 24 points and grabbed nine rebounds in Golden State's win over the Lakers. Speights was uber-effecient (8-11 FG, 8-8 FT's), and his energy off the bench sparked the Warriors for most of the game.

Kobe Bryant (Los Angeles SG)- Scored a season-high 44 points (15-34 FG) in a loss to Golden State. Bryant was shooting early and often, showing the critics he still has what it takes to light it up, since L.A. has no true second scoring option.

Carmelo Anthony (New York SF/PF)- Scored 28 points and tallied nine rebounds in a 109-93 win over the Denver Nuggets. Melo had his third straight efficient game (10-16 FG), and will need to continue this going forward if the Knicks are to have any hope of making the playoffs.

Who Was Not

Anthony Morrow (Oklahoma City SG)- Struggled shooting (1-9 FG) in a 69-65 loss to the Houston Rockets. There must have been something in the air, because both teams failed to shoot over 30% as a team, so Morrow can be cut some slack for an off night.

Dwight Howard (Houston C)- Howard not only struggled from the floor (4-12 FG), but also hit only 4-13 free throws in Houston's win. He grabbed nine rebounds, but committed four turnovers in what was probably the worst game in the NBA this season.

Carlos Boozer (Los Angeles PF)- Scored only six points on 3-13 shooting in L.A.'s loss to the Golden State Sunday. It marked the first time in six games that Boozer failed to score in double-digits.
