Domantas Sabonis continues to cause headaches for the Wizards on the interior:
As much as Russell Westbrook has been a headache for the Indiana Pacers this year, Domantas Sabonis has been just as much of a headache for the Washington Wizards! In three games against Washington this year, Sabonis averaged 32.3 points, 14.3 rebounds, 9.3 assists and shot 61.3% from the floor.

Since the start of May, Sabonis is averaging 22.1 points, 14.8 rebounds, 10.5 assists and is shooting 60.6% from the floor. With Myles Turner being out still as he deals with a foot/toe injury and with Caris LeVert being in health and safety protocols, this opens the door for even more production for Sabonis.
Given the success that he has had against the Wizards this season, not only is Domantas Sabonis going to record a triple-double in this game, but a 30-20-10 game is not out of question for the 25-year-old big man.
Only four players in NBA history have recorded a 30-points, 20-rebounds and 10-assists game: Luka Doncic (2019-20), Nikola Jokic (2019-20), DeMarcus Cousins (2017-18) and David Lee (2009-10). Sabonis could definitely join this small list Thursday night, assuming he can continue to put together big games against the Wizards.
