Trail Blazers star Damian Lillard made history on Wednesday night in Portland’s 134–124 victory over the Jazz.
Lillard scored 60 points in the win, hitting the milestone for the fourth time in his career. At age 32, Lillard became the third-oldest player in NBA history to score 60, and it was was completed with historic efficiency.
Lillard needed just 29 shots and 10 free throws to hit the 60-point mark. Only two other players—Karl Malone in 1990 (26 shots) and James Harden in 2019 (24 shots)—reached 60 points on fewer shot attempts, per ESPN.
