Not trying to dampen anyone's enthusiasm for Sauce Castillo, but does anyone remember who scored 24 points for us off the bench on opening night last year?
Pat Connaughton. Like Nik Stauskas tonight it was also a career high for Patty Baseball. Still is.
The difference being, Connaughton did it in a 48-point blowout win over the hapless Phoenix Suns, not LeBron and Lakers.
