Also, there was a pretty exciting NBA; especially for on player in particular. Luka with a 60-point, 21 rebound, 10 assist game in a 126-121 OT win over Knicks.

It's the first 60-point, 20-rebound, 10-assist game ever. It's the second 60-point triple-double ever. James Harden had one in 2018. It's the first 60-point, 20-rebound game since Shaquille O'Neal in 2000. The 60 points are a franchise record.

Mavs were down 9 with under 30 seconds left, Luka had 6 points and an assist to help send to OT

Plus, our Carolina Hurricanes had a big shutout for their second to last 2022 game.

Canes win 3-0 over Blackhawks Anti Raanta gets a much needed shutout Goals from Martin Necas, Jesper Fast, and Jordan Martinook who is pursuing Gretzky’s goal scoring record
