Live Updates
BOOM BAM BOW
The Lakers and Timberwolves improved their offense in the second half, but it was not enough to even come close to dethroning Adebayo. Doncic had 31 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists (53 PRA), while Austin Reaves had 31 points, eight assists and seven rebounds (46 PRA).
Adebayo takes this week’s King of the Court crown with ease. Bettors will take home a juicy $1.1k bonus bet thanks to Adebayo’s historic night.
That’s a wrap for this week’s edition of King of the Court. Join us next week for another exciting Tuesday slate.
One Game to Go
Only the Timberwolves vs. Lakers game remains. None of the players are even in the top 10 of the King of the Court leaderboard. The clock is the only thing standing in the way of Adebayo’s crown.
Maybe Another Week
Giddey is up to 51 PRA with 21 points, 17 assists and 13 rebounds. Matas Buzelis has 41 points, six rebounds and two assists for 49 PRA. Any other week, this may have been enough for a King of the Court crown. Not this time.
Free Basketball
The Bulls and Warriors are in overtime, giving a chance for Josh Giddey to pad his stats. Giddey is up to 46 PRA, which ties him with Derrick White for third in King of the Court.
Nowhere Close
The Lakers and Timberwolves are tied 45-45 at halftime. Doncic is up to 12 points, six assists and five rebounds for 23 PRA, but he isn’t even the game leader. Deandre Ayton is up to 24 PRA with 12 points, 11 rebounds and one assist at the half.
Defense Defense Defense
For anyone hoping Doncic steals the King of the Court crown, keep dreaming. Doncic scored four points on 2-of-10 shooting in the first quarter. The Timberwolves led 21-16 after the first frame, so the offense as a whole was missing.
Luka Time
Only one player can possible take Adebayo’s crown. And that’s Luka Doncic. It would be absurd, but it’s never not possible. Lock in for Doncic’s game against the Timberwolves.
Only 53
Victor Wembanyama just had another excellent performance. He’s making a great MVP case following the Spurs’ win over the Celtics. Wembanyama had 39 points, 11 rebounds and three assists for 53 PRA.
That’s a King-of-the-Court-winning statline in most weeks, except Adebayo had 83 POINTS and 95 PRA tonight.
NBA HISTORY
Adebayo did it!! He finished the game with 83 points, surpassing Bryant for the second highest scoring game in NBA history. Only Wilt Chamberlain (100) had more points in a single game.
Naturally, this puts Adebayo on top of the King of the Court leaderboard. He had nine rebounds and three assists, finishing with 95 PRA!! W O W
Going for 81
Adebayo is at 77 points to go along with nine rebounds and three assists. He’s four points shy of tying Kobe Bryant’s 81-point game in 2006. He’s still in the game with three minutes to go.
Fourth Quarter Bam?
The Heat lead 115-100 a minute into the fourth quarter, and Adebayo is still in the game. It’s unclear how long he’ll play, but he has 64 points and 70 PRA! Who knows how much more he’s got in him.
Regardless, this is going to be a tough score to beat. There’s a lot of action left, so let’s see what the rest of the slate has to offer.
Late Risers
While Adebayo has a firm lead with 65 PRA, there are a handful of other players in the 76ers vs. Grizzlies game rising up the leaderboard in the fourth quarter. Cam Payne is up to 39 PRA and Oubre is at 38, ranking second and third, respectively. Jerome is not far behind at 35, and VJ Edgecombe is at 31.
It would take a miracle for any of these players to catch Adebayo given the time, but it’s worth noting their excellent outings.
Shooting for the Stars
Halftime didn’t slow Adebayo or Sarr down as they continue to rack up PRA in the third quarter. Adebayo is up to 49 with 45 points, while Sarr is up to 35 on 28 points, six rebounds and one assist.
These two comfortably lead the pack, but Cunningham quietly snuck up to 28 PRA by halftime with 20 points, seven assists and one rebound.
It’s Still Hot in Miami
OK the first quarter pace was not maintainable, but that doesn’t mean Adebayo slowed down that much. He’s entering halftime with 43 points and four rebounds for a whopping 47 PRA in 19 minutes.
This is a winning score some weeks, but it’s only halftime in Miami. Adebayo likely has more to pour in before his night’s over.
Meanwhile, Alex Sarr is up to 30 PRA at halftime. That’s an impressive mark, but it looks measly next to Adebayo’s line.
Don’t Forget Cade
Adebayo has stole the show, but let’s not forget Cade Cunningham. He’s up to 20 PRA just four minutes into the second quarter. He’s tied with Coward and Cameron Payne for third place.
BAM BAM BAM
Oh my goodness, Bam Adebayo! The Heat scored 40 points in the first quarter … 31 of them are from Adebayo. That’s a ridiculous way to start the game, and it made me question whether there was a typo on the stat sheet.
Adebayo has 34 PRA after one quarter. That’s a 136 PRA pace. The next closest is Oubre at 24 PRA at halftime.
Nothing but Nets
The Pistons vs. Nets game is off to a great start with Michael Porter Jr. racking up nine points and one rebound for 10 PRA about five minutes into the game. The lack of assists could cost Porter a spot on the final leaderboard, but he’s an elite scorer.
Bam Adebayo is cooking with nine points and 9 PRA to start the Heat vs. Wizards game. Without Tyler Herro, he’s taking on a larger offensive role.
Slow it Down
Coward had 13 PRA midway through the first quarter, but he finished the quarter with 13 PRA. He’s tied with Kelly Oubre Jr. for the early lead. Ty Jerome is at 12 PRA in the same game. Coward and Oubre are on a 52 PRA pace, so let’s see if they can continue this.
Cower in Fear
It’s not even halfway through the first. quarter, and Cedric Coward is giving fans a great showing. The rookie is up to nine points and four rebounds for a total of 13 PRA in five minutes. Let’s see if he can maintain this pace.
Tipping Off
The first game of Tuesday’s exciting slate has begun. The 76ers are facing the Grizzlies in Philadelphia. Let’s get things started!
