Blazers point guard Damian Lillard was virtually unguardable in Friday’s 118-100 win over the Kings.<\/p>\n

Lillard scored 50 points in only 29 minutes of action, as he was so hot that the team didn’t even need him to play in the fourth quarter. The Blazers star drained 16 of 26 shots he attempted, including eight of 13 three-pointers. His team was +18 with him on the floor, and he also managed to dish out six assists.<\/p>\n

This tweet puts Lillard’s amazing performance in perspective.<\/p>\n

\n

Damian Lillard is the 3rd player in NBA history with 50 or more points in fewer than 30 minutes played. <\/p>\n

He joins teammate CJ McCollum who tallied 50 points in 29 minutes on January 31 and Klay Thompson, who had 60 points in 29 minutes in December 2016.<\/p>\n
