An end of series for Domantas Sabonis. After 61 consecutive games in the NBA with a double-double, the Sacramento Kings interior was limited to 8 points and 13 rebounds against the Oklahoma City Thunder (105-112) last night.
In all of NBA history, this is the 7th longest streak. Since the merger between the NBA and ABA in 1976-1977, the Lithuanian international has the record ahead of Kevin Love (53 with the Minnesota Timberwolves).
“It’s great. I find myself mentioned on a list with some big names. At the end of the day, you’re just trying to play your game and go out there and win. It’s my job as a midfielder. , get rebounds and finish.
What if I knew my series was in danger? No, we just wanted to win. In the end, we mainly tried to make three-point shots to get back into the match.” thus commented Domantas Sabonis.
Sometimes accused of having done “stat paddind” to keep this series alive, Domantas Sabonis will be able to evolve without worrying about this record. As a reminder, the absolute record goes to Wilt Chamberlain with 227 consecutive double-double matches.
What must Domantas Sabonis do to be respected?
