CTS is starting a new segment called “Freak Stat”. Whenever we see an outstanding stat that is not receiving much public attention we will post it immediately. If you happen to be listening to the Dan Patrick show or watching Sportscenter and you see a “freak stat” that you feel is not receiving enough love, please feel free to email us immediately at coverinthespread@gmail.com and if  you have a good “freak stat” we will post it as soon as possible.

Inaugural Freak Stat

Kevin Durant’s freak stat of scoring 25+ points in 29 straight games came to an end last Wednesday at San Antonio. Against a top ten defense and on the road, Durant was only able to get a measley 21 vs the Spurs to put the streak to an end. Big deal. Last night KD scored 39 points in a 113-107 victory vs Sacramento. His teammate and rising star Russell Westbrook added 30 to help secure the win for the Thunder. This was just the fifth time in NBA history that teammates under the age of 22 both scored 30+ points in the same game. Kevin Durant has been a part of all five.
