The NBA season kicked off Oct 26th. Eight days into the season and theres been rookies and players that have made close to or milestone marks in the NBA. The rookie Blake Griffin who didn't get a chance to play in the last years season due to knee surgery, made a big name for himself in his First NBA game and the first game of the season. He's got his name in the NBA records with the one of few to have a double-double in his first NBA game with 23 points and 14 rebounds. The year before in his first preseason game he tore his acl in his knee and was forced to sit out for the remainder of the year.
The Celtics guard Rajon Rondo has also been put in the record books within the first 4 games. He recorded a career high 24 rebound game, and no turnovers. He also broke the record for most assist throughout 5 games taking the record from Hall of Famer John Stockon. his team is now 3-1 with his steller play. He is also so far in the season one of two to record a triple-double he and Brandon Jennings. Also another player on his team has put his name in the record books and a spot in potential Hall of Fame. During the game vs the Milwaukee Bucks. While at the free thow line shooting the first of two. He makes the first putting him in company with Larry Bird and Maravich. He became only the third Celtic to score over 20,000 pints. As he makes the first free throw he puts up two fingers to the crowd in feeling of he knew he had hit the mark of 20,000 points.
The long time veteran Kobe Bryant has added to his long list of accomplishments. He now has the most minutes played as a Laker, passing Kareem Abdulgabar. Just one many acomplishments. He also achieved his 17th career triple-double vs the Sacremento Kings. His team also is one of 3 undefeated teams in the league. Hopefully more milestones to come.!
