NBA, segnano 83 punti in due e perdono: solo tre coppie come Trae Young e Dejounte Murray

Nella partita contro gli Houston Rockets Trae Young e Dejounte Murray sono entrati nella storia… dalla parte sbagliata. Solamente altre tre volte nella storia della NBA due compagni di squadra capaci di segnare almeno 39 punti a testa come Young (44) e Murray (39) nella stessa partita sono poi usciti dal campo con una sconfitta, anche se c’è una coppia a cui è successo addirittura due volte. Ecco tutti quelli che ci sono riusciti
