The Denver Nuggets held on for a 142-138 overtime win over the Minnesota Timberwolves that featured a Nikola Jokić triple-double with 56 points, 16 rebounds and 15 assists, as well as an eventful night from Anthony Edwards.

December 25, 2011 marked the first day of the delayed NBA season. One day later, a number of future greats made their debuts.

Looking back at the Emirates NBA Cup winner, the game MVP and All-NBA Cup teams from each season. New York's depth delivers big, Karl-Anthony Towns returns for the moment and the Knicks hope to flip the Cup script.

Jokic finished the game with 56 points (15/21 FG, 4/6 3PT), 16 rebounds, and 15 assists, leading his team to an impressive win. 18 of his 56 points came in overtime, which the Nuggets won 27-23. With this performance, he broke Stephen Curry's record for most points in overtime in NBA history, which was set in 2016 with 17 points.

During the Lakers' 80th season of existence (they were founded back in 1946 as the Detroit Gems in the National Basketball League), LeBron Wire is taking a look at each player who has worn their jersey, whether it has been a purple and gold one or the ones they donned back in the Midwest during their early years.

Scoring 40 points in the NBA is no small feat. Doing so before even turning 20 years old adds another layer to that accomplishment.

During his time suiting up for the Celtics, Anthony wore only jersey No. 50 and put up 1.0 points and 1.5 rebounds per game.
