Portland Trail Blazers' point guard Damian Lillard scored a whopping 71 points in their game against the Sacramento Kings on Saturday night, breaking his own franchise record and the record for most points scored in a game this season. Lillard made 20 of 39 field goals, including 12 of 20 from three-point range, and added six rebounds and four assists in the Blazers' 122-116 win over the Kings.

Lillard's impressive performance comes after a tough season for the Trail Blazers, who have been struggling to make the playoffs this year. Lillard has been carrying the team on his back, averaging 30.4 points and 7.9 assists per game.

Lillard's 71-point game also puts him in elite company, joining the likes of Wilt Chamberlain, Kobe Bryant, David Thompson, and Elgin Baylor as the only players in NBA history to score 70 or more points in a single game.

Lillard's talent and leadership have made him one of the best point guards in the league, and his performance on Saturday night was nothing short of legendary. As the Trail Blazers continue their playoff push, Lillard will undoubtedly be a key factor in their success.
