Domantas Sabonis · Find a way to compile a league-high 119 double-doubles over a 126-game span, and you can be rest assured that some of those are going to be of the one-of-a-kind, record-breaking type. Something of a king —both literally and figuratively — in his ability to produce seldom-seen statlines, Domantas Sabonis’ timing couldn’t have been more precise, as the Sacramento Kings roamed the floor of the NBA’s defending-champion Boston Celtics. Banners may have hung in TD Garden’s rafters, but anything else airborne and attainable on January 10, 2025 fell into the arms of the Lithuanian big man. “Glass cleaner” was the first bullet point on Sabonis’ résumé on this night, but, versatile as ever, No. 11 also worked part-time as a long-range sniper and table-setter for the offense. Extraordinary enough to guide Sacramento’s success, even as 12.5-point underdogs, Sabonis accumulated 23 points (on 10-of-15), 28 rebounds, three assists, one block, and three 3-pointers, propelling a blowout win. It marked the first 20-point, 25-rebound game on Boston’s storied home floor since 1971. · State of Mint · State of Mint
