The No. 4 pick is too cruel! After only playing 15 games, he set the first record in NBA history in 1979. The best rookie is guaranteed.

On November 20, the NBA regular season will continue. The Hornets and Pacers staged a "fish belly" duel. Both teams are at the bottom and both need a victory to stop their decline. In the end, the Pacers seized the opportunity at home and defeated the Hornets 127-118, winning their second victory of the season. Although the Hornets lost the game, they also gained huge gains. Rookie Kniper set an NBA historical record. It can be said that he has a bright future. This No. 4 pick is too ruthless.

At the beginning of the game, the two teams started to attack at a fast pace. The Pacers took the lead with their home court advantage. Maturin grabbed consecutive rebounds in the interior to complete the second attack. Siakam used sharp breakthroughs to tear open the defense. At the end of the first quarter, the Pacers established a slight advantage of 38-33. In the second quarter, the Pacers continued their hot offensive touch. Maturin was in full swing. He not only scored at the basket many times, but also sent out exquisite assists to activate the team. He scored 12 points in this quarter and led the Pacers to play smoothly. They beat the Hornets by 11 points in a single quarter, widening the point difference to 70-54.

However, the Hornets did not give up. Entering the second half, rookie Knipper broke out. He first received an assist from Ball and hit a three-pointer, and then completed a cold-blooded jumper after a steal in the transition attack. He contributed 10 points in a single quarter and sent 3 assists, leading the Hornets to launch a 30-24 counterattack wave, narrowing the point difference to less than 10 points. The Pacers relied on Siakam's singles to stabilize the situation. Connaughton became a surprise player in the final quarter, scoring 11 points to make the game full of suspense. Knipel also scored a three-pointer again, approaching the score. However, the Pacers played steadily, with Siakam, Mathurin and others performing well. The team finally withstood the Hornets' counterattack 127-118 and won.

The Pacers blossomed in many ways in this game. A total of 6 players scored in double figures, including McConnell who scored 14 points and Hufu scored 20 points on the bench. Maturin scored 24 points, and Siakam also scored 22 points and 4 rebounds. Nembhard and Shepard jointly contributed 31 points. It can be said that everyone is united. On the other hand, the Hornets have too little firepower. Boss Ball only made 5 of 21 shots, which was crazy. Knipel and Bridges carried the team. Bridges scored 25 points and 5 rebounds, and Knipel scored 28 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists.

It is worth mentioning that Knipel scored 28 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists in this game, and scored 5 three-pointers. His season data has also reached an average of 18.3 points and 6.1 rebounds per game. He also averaged 3.3 three-pointers per game and maintained a 40% three-point shooting rate. It only took him 15 games to hit 50 three-pointers, becoming the fastest player in NBA history to reach this record. He has the opportunity to become a phenomenal shooter, and this year's Rookie of the Year is also the number one favorite.
