Daily Recap- Dec. 1.

Who Was Hot

John Wall (Washington PG)- Got back on track Monday, posting a double-double of 18 pints and 13 assists in a 107-86 win over the Miami Heat. Wall had only scored 18 combined points and dished out 14 combined assists in his last two games, so this is what Washington fans were expecting versus Miami. Wall continues to perform as one of the best point guards in the league, and it will likely stay that way for years to come.

Kawhi Leonard (San Antonio SF)- Scored 26 points and pulled down 10 rebounds in a 109-103 win over the Philadelphia 76ers. With Tony Parker and Tim Duncan resting for the night, Leonard took on more responsibilities on the offensive end of the floor, and showcased his talents once again.

Michael Carter-Williams (Philadelphia PG)- Followed up his triple-double performance with another fantastic performance, scoring 24 points in a loss to the Spurs. Carter-Williams also grabbed 11 rebounds and dished out seven assists, and will continue to fill up the stat sheet for the 76ers.

Shabazz Muhammad (Minnesota SG)- Tallied 18 points and 10 rebounds in a 127-101 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers. Muhammad has reached a double-digit point total in three of the last four games, and is starting to earn consistent minutes in the Timberwolves' rotation.

Who Was Not

Jamal Crawford (Los Angeles SG)- Scored only four points on 1 of 5 shooting in a 127-101 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves. It was the first time in six games that Crawford failed to scored at least 19 points, but keep in mind that his minutes were low because of the blowout win. Expect the high-volume shooter to get back to his usual scoring output in L.A.'s next contest.

Paul Pierce (Washington SF)- Played only 20 minutes, recording four points in a 107-86 win over the Miami Heat on Monday night. Pierce's numbers have been up and down this season, but has scored in double figures in eight of his last ten games.

Play of the Night

Spurs' guard Marco Belinelli soared for a unlikely posterization of 76ers' center Henry Sims on Monday night. The Italian sharpshooter does not get to the rim often, so appreciate this dunk while you can.
