16 years ago today, on December 10, 2008, Carmelo Anthony, the star forward for the Denver Nuggets, had one of the most remarkable offensive performances in NBA history.
In just one quarter of play against the Minnesota Timberwolves, Anthony scored an astounding 33 points, matching George Gervin’s NBA record for most points scored in a single quarter – a record that has since been broken by Klay Thompson’s 37 point quarter.
