Lauri Markkanen in history, wiped out Karl Malone after 27 years

Eight games on the Nba night, including the Philadelphia 76ers, who remain undefeated after their success over the Orlando Magic, who were not satisfied with Paolo Banchero’s 32 points.

Fourth win in as many games also for the hot San Antonio Spurs, with 24 points and 15 rebounds from Victor Wembanyama. They unblocked the Boston Celtics, who after three straight losses at least beat the New Orleans Pelicans.

The big star of the night, however, was Lauri Markkanen with 51 points and 14 rebounds. It had been since 1998 that no one from the Jazz had gone above 50. Karl Malone did it then.
