Crazy statistics from the Wagner brothers and LeBron James – NBA duel on Friday from 4:30 a.m
What should not be forgotten in the whole story about Franz Wagner, who some have already seen performing at NBA All-Star level.
Franz is not the only Wagner in the franchise (that’s what the Americans call their NBA clubs) from Florida.
Moritz Wagner plays alongside his younger brother, the sibling duo forms together with the NBA rookie Tristan da Silvaby far the most pronounced German representation in the league.
The next numbers game: In the 98:86 win against the Philadelphia 76ers, the German trio scored more than half of their team’s points, Franz Wagner scored 31 points, brother Moritz scored 14, and Silva scored six.
For once it has not been verified, but it is reasonable to assume that German players accounted for more than half of a team’s points in an NBA game for the first time.
However, the following statistics have been researched. As reported by the X-Account “Orlando Magic PR”, an official media organ of the franchise, the Wagner brothers made NBA history between November 9th and 13th.
The team provided the team’s best and second-best scorer three times in a row; the last time this happened was in 1946, when the Simmons brothers played for the Boston Celtics.
The top star that the Wagner brothers are challenging on Friday night knows all too well about NBA history.
In the recent past, probably no other person has shaped the most important league and basketball itself as much as LeBron James.
The 39-year-old is the owner of numerous records, especially when it comes to points. With over 40,500 points, he is the most successful thrower in NBA history, plus more than 8,000 points in the playoffs, which are considered separately.
The game on February 7, 2023, in which James broke Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s previous record, is a big piece of NBA history.
But while the three-time Olympic champion is gradually approaching his 40th birthday, which is December 30th of this year, he is still good for records.
He recently reminded the competition that Methuselah is always to be expected when he posted three triple doubles (double-digit points, rebounds and assists in one game) in a row.
