Jarrett Allen was a huge part of the Cleveland Cavaliers’ 124-116 win over the San Antonio Spurs on Thursday.
The big man put up 29 points and 15 rebounds during the match, helping his team succeed and also getting another spot in their rich history.
According to Cavs Notes, Thursday was the second time this month and fourth time in Allen’s career that he posted 25+ points and 15+ rebounds with a 90.0 percent field goal percentage.
Allen and Wilt Chamberlain are the only players in the history of the NBA with 4+ games with 25+ points, 15+ rebounds, and 90.9 percent from the field.
That is great company to be a part of and Allen should be very proud of his accomplishment.

This isn’t the only amazing thing Allen has done this year, and he has been fantastic since the very first game of the season.
His average of 13.7 points and 10.0 rebounds has been incredibly helpful for Cleveland, but his 70.3 field goal percentage doesn’t get enough praise.
Quite simply, when Allen gets the ball, he will most likely score.
And when other teams are attempting to earn an easy bucket, he makes it very hard for them.
The Cavaliers have succeeded this year for many reasons, and it’s not just one or two stars who are making their success possible.
But Allen does deserve a lot of credit because he has come into his own in very important ways.
Many of his numbers are actually a little bit down compared to last year, but there is no doubt that he is one of the most crucial parts of the team and their dominant hold on the top of the Eastern Conference.
