He has eclipsed the 37 points scored by Aron Baynes on the 5th of March last year.
Ben has done it on a ridiculously efficient 14/20 shooting.
Edit: Okay Irving can be counted. Though if you count people who commit to playing for Australia my point still stands.
This game occurred during the 1950 NBA Season between the Fort Wayne Pistons and the Minneapolis Lakers. The final score was 19-18 Pistons, making it the lowest-scoring game in NBA history. This was due to the lack of a shot clock and Fort Wayne wanting to keep the ball out of the dominant Mikan's hands for as long as they possibly could.
Their strategy worked, giving them the 1-point win over Minneapolis and restricting Mikan to 36.4% from the floor, but not without giving him his aforementioned record.
"Mr. Basketball" shot 4 of 11, making 7 of 11 free throw attempts, giving him a final statline of 15 points and 4 rebounds with 1 personal foul, leaving him with a whopping 83.3% of his team's total points.
Will we ever see this statistic passed in our lifetimes? With the addition of the shot clock, definitely not. Just thought this was an interesting stat that will forever remain with one of the pioneers of the modern game.
Crime rate is 723 per 100,000. The next highest state is Madhya Pradesh, at 348.3 per 100,000.

In light of the recent update I decided to spend a few hrs today testing a huge variety of weapons against riven. All tests were done in a well, without armor reserves or any other buffs or perks. The 5 highest damaging single weapons in order are the 1kv (by far), Penumbra gsm (a green grenade launcher from the main campaign), the two legendary precision launchers, any agressive gl w spike nades, followed by any agressive gl. As a side note the absolute highest dmg weapon/combo when tractor cannon would be a swarm of the raven (iron banner gl) w spike nades & to armor reserves followed very, very closely anarchy + orewings maul (gambit prime breach launcher) w spike nades and no armor reserves needed.
All damage numbers were then divided by 1.35 to get the raw damage numbers (values without well). All weapons were tested until empty or until riven exploded. Also clusters are not dead, using the old bad omens I averaged around 1.05mil, so with the typical buffs (well + meele + tractor + banner) you should hit around 2.8mil with 6 rockets and 0 blessings/curses, w 1kv or penumbra gsm and the same set of buffs you should hit 3.7 or 3.5 respectively. I plan to post more data in a spreadsheet on raidsecrets later for anyone interested.
On to the numbers (+ a few extra popular theories/choices, this is not everyrhing I tested if you have another weapon I can prbly tell you the dmg value).
-
1KV = 1.56mil
-
Penumbral Gsm = 1.4mil
-
Sunrise GL4/Orthrus = 1.36mil
-
Agressive frame GL w Spike Nades = 1.24mil
-
Agressive frame GL w/o Spike Nades = 1.18mil
-) Prospector = 1.01mil
-) Cluster Bomb Rocket = 1.05mil
-) Two Tailed Fox = 1.13mil
-) Wardlciff = Dont try, but around 0.9mil
-) Breach Loading grenade launchers = 1.06mil
-) TLord = 1.03mil
-) Malfeasance = 0.6mil (Highest dmg Primary Weapon vs riven)
TLDR: Rockets are still fine, but there are now weapons significantly stronger than them. For the easiest kill you probably want to use 1kv if you have it or the green grenade launcher Penumbra GSm if you dont. Now go out there and melt riven guys.
