New Years Eve Recap

Top Performances 

Kevin Durant (Oklahoma City SF)- Scored a season-high 44 points (13-23 FG) in a 137-134 overtime win against the Phoenix Suns. Durant didn't miss a beat after not playing in six straight games because of a twisted ankle, as he also grabbed 10 rebounds and dished out seven assists. He logged 40 minutes of playing time, and appears to be fully healthy once again.

James Harden (Houston SG)- Hit a career-high eight 3-pointers and scored 36 points in a 102-83 win over the Charlotte Hornets. Harden simply caught fire last night from deep, and also chipped in seven rebounds and six assists. He has now scored over 30 points in four of his last five games, all while dealing with a hamstring injury.

Manu Ginobili (San Antonio SG)- Tallied a team-high 25 points in a 95-93 win over the New Orleans Pelicans. Ginobili also grabbed seven rebounds and hit five 3-pointers in the victory, and is having a solid season at age 37, scoring just over 13 points a game.

Anthony Davis (New Orleans PF/C)- Recorded a double-double of 24 points and 12 rebounds in a loss to the Spurs. It was just another night in the office for the young MVP candidate, as he went up against Tim Duncan for most of the game. While they aren't winning a ton of games, the Pelicans have found their centerpiece for the next 10 years in Davis.
