D. Sabonis scored another double-double in this match. In 35 minutes spent on the court, the Lithuanian scored 22 points (8/14 doubles, 0/3 triples, 6/10 penalties), rebounded as many as 20 balls and made 9 assists.
The tall player of the 27-year-old Lithuanian national team was the most productive player in the duel. It was Sabo’s 71st double-double of the season (58 straight).

De’Aaron Fox, who scored 20 points, helped D. Sabonis the most in this match.
