The BEST NBA Christmas Day Debuts of the Last 10 Years!

Domantas Sabonis - Logs another triple-double Sabonis finished Saturday's 110-98 loss to the Timberwolves with 17 points (7-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-5 FT), 10 rebounds, 10 assists and one steal in 39 minutes.

Impact Sabonis recorded his second triple-double in a row and has now hit the milestone five times this season. The standout center is carrying a massive load for the Kings this season, and although his eight-year NBA career has been remarkably free from injury, the team needs additional inside support inside to keep the center fresh.

Keegan Murray - Strong outing in loss Murray provided 20 points (8-16 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, one block and three steals over 40 minutes during Saturday's 110-98 loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact Murray's contribution to the Kings has been a recently, as the regression from Kevin Huerter has had a negative effect on the team's production. The Iowa product increased his double-digit scoring streak to 10 games in the loss.

Kevin Huerter - Struggles continue in starting role Huerter notched two points (1-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one rebound and one assist across 15 minutes during Saturday's 110-98 loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact It looked like Huerter had come out of his funk against the Suns, but he came back to earth again after his 13-point effort. Huerter has broken the 10-point scoring barrier only four times in his past 10 games, forcing De'Aaron Fox, Domantas Sabonis and Keegan Murray to carry the offense. Malik Monk (foot) wasn't around to pick up the slack, and he's been useful during Huerter's slump.

Jaden McDaniels - Turns in 20 points McDaniels contributed 20 points (8-16 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist, one block and four steals over 41 minutes during Saturday's 110-98 victory over the Kings.

Impact McDaniels logged 41 minutes during Saturday's win, marking his second-highest usage of the season. The slight increase was likely due to Karl-Anthony Towns' (knee) absence, but McDaniels has held steady over the past week with a three-game string of 20-plus point totals. McDaniels' secondary numbers are nothing to write home about, and his fantasy impact is contingent on a high shot volume.

Rudy Gobert - Massive double-double in win Gobert recorded 21 points (10-13 FG, 1-2 FT), 17 rebounds, one assist and two blocks in 39 minutes during Saturday's 110-98 win over the Kings.

Impact Gobert turned in an excellent line with Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) unavailable, as the veteran carried a heavier load with his teammate absent. The result was Gobert's highest rebound total since his 20 boards against Memphis on Dec. 8, as well as his second-best scoring total of the season. Towns' knee injury doesn't appear to be serious, so typical numbers should be expected for Gobert Tuesday against the Thunder.

Anthony Edwards - Leads team with 34 points Edwards had 34 points (13-27 FG, 3-12 3Pt, 5-5 FT), five rebounds, 10 assists, one block and one steal in 39 minutes during Saturday's 110-98 victory over the Kings.

Impact Edwards' usage received a boost with Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) sidelined. The dynamic guard is on an excellent five-game run, averaging 31.4 points, 5.8 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 2.0 steals over the span. Edwards also converted 50.9 percent of his shots during the same period.
