DeMarcus Cousins' dominance was shown on Monday night, in a double-overtime victory over Chicago, where Cousins amassed 44 points, 24 rebounds and 10 assists in 52 minutes of play. The triple-double not only propelled New Orleans to the win, it also planted Cousins firmly on an extremely short list of NBA legends.
The last player to produce at least 40 points, 20 rebounds and 10 assists in a game was Kareem Abdul-Jabbar in 1972. The others: Wilt Chamberlain (six times), Oscar Robertson and Elgin Baylor -- all of whom are in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.
Cousins' performance was so dominant that Anthony Davis finished with 34 points, nine rebounds and five assists, and no one even cares.
Surely his fantasy owners will be happy enough as he also beaten our game record with the incredible amount of 119 fantasy points. Below the top ten marks on our game's history:
