LeBron James Sets New Records

In a significant milestone, LeBron James passed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for the most minutes played in NBA history, logging 57,470 minutes. This achievement came as the Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Sacramento Kings 113-100. James contributed 19 points and seven assists in the game. Additionally, he reached 10,000 points with the Lakers, joining an elite group of players who have achieved this feat with two different franchises[1].

Karl-Anthony Towns' Monster Return

Karl-Anthony Towns made a memorable return to Minnesota, posting a monster double-double that has never been seen before in a Timberwolves uniform. Although the exact details of his performance are not specified, it was a night to remember for Towns and the Timberwolves fans[1].

- Anfernee Simons' Game-Winner: Simons hit a buzzer-beating shot to give the Portland Trail Blazers a 126-124 win over the Denver Nuggets. Nikola Jokić and Jamal Murray combined for 58 points and 18 assists for Denver, but it was not enough to overcome Simons' clutch performance[1].
