LeBron James, Donovan Mitchell Lead Way As Top NBA Performers Tuesday Night

Even with only 3 games on last night's NBA’s slate of games, there were still numerous standout performances from some of the league’s biggest stars. There were big scoring outbursts and monster rebound games.

Here are the Top 3 Performances from last night:

1. Donovan Mitchell, Cleveland Cavaliers (43 Pts, 6 Reb, 5 Ast, 4 Stl)

Donovan Mitchell has thrived in his first season in Cleveland and last night was a good example of that. He scored 43 points in a win against the Lakers, including 4 three-pointers. Mitchell has been a great fit alongside Garland.

2. LeBron James, Los Angeles Lakers (21 Pts, 17 Reb, 4 AST, 1 Stl, Blk)

LeBron James, even at 37 years old, still finds ways to impact any game he’s in. Against the Cavaliers last night and without teammate Anthony Davis, James crashed the glass for a monster 17 rebounds. Despite his stellar play, the Lakers fell short 116-102.

3. Luka Doncic, Dallas Mavericks (22 Pts, 10 Reb, 12 Ast, 1 Blk)

Luka Doncic’s play this season has him square in the MVP conversation. His triple-double last night in a tight win against the Nuggets is emblematic of that. Doncic has been on the best players this season, carrying the Mavericks to big wins routinely.

Honorable Mentions:

Jarrett Allen, Cleveland Cavaliers (24 Pts, 11 Reb, 1 AST, 3 Stl, 1 Blk)

Darius Garland, Cleveland Cavaliers (21 Pts, 3 Reb, 11 AST, 1 Stl)

Bojan Bogdanovic, Detroit Pistons (31 Pts, 3 Reb, 5 Ast, 3 Stl)

Bam Adebayo, Miami Heat (21 Pts, 15 Reb, 2 Ast, 1 Blk)

Tyler Herro, Miami Heat (34 Pts, 3 Reb, 6 Ast, 1 Stl)
