Lauri Markkanen scores career-high 33 points against Knicks, dunks all over Enes Kanter

Lauri Markkanen had yet another awesome performance for the Chicago Bulls Wednesday night, helping them beat the New York Knicks in Madison Square Garden.

Markkanen led the Bulls with a career-high points (33) and rebounds (10), recording his ninth double-double of the season.

The former Arizona Wildcat made eight 3-pointers in the contest. Only one other 7-footer has made eight 3s in an NBA game: future Hall of Famer Dirk Nowitzki.

But the most impressive moment of the night came in the third quarter, when Markkanen dunked on Enes Kanter.
