Today is February 4, 2025 — i.e. 2/4. Among active NBA players wearing #24 this season (the 24-25 season), Norm Powell is first in minutes played, FGM, FGA, 3PM, 3PA, FTM, FTA, steals, turnovers, and points. He’s also averaging a career-high 24 points per game (okay, 24.1 — but I rounded down). 🏀

Today is February 3, 2025 — i.e. 2/3/25. The only active NBA players to score 2,325 or more points in a single regular season are James Harden (4x), Kevin Durant (2x), Russell Westbrook, LeBron James, Steph Curry, and Luka Dončić. Dončić did it most recently, scoring 2,370 last season. 🏀

Today is February 1, i.e. 2/1. The only active NBA player celebrating a birthday today is Drew Eubanks (b. 1997). He was also traded today. 🏀

Today is January 31, i.e. 1/31. Zach Lavine is the only NBA player to score 31 or more points in five consecutive games this season. He did it six consecutive games earlier this month. 🏀

Today is January 30, i.e. 1/30. This season, among current NBA players who currently wear #30, Steph Curry has the third-best 3FG% at 40.5%. Who’s ahead of him? Journeyman C Jay Huff at 41.7% and his brother Seth, who is currently shooting an absurd 46.9% from deep. 🏀
