Carmelo Anthony scores 29 points with 10 rebounds as Thunder throttle Cavaliers

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Carmelo Anthony scored 29 points (11-of-19 field goals, 4-of-4 free throws) with 10 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal, and 3 3-pointers in Saturday's 148-124 demolition of the Cleveland Cavaliers.

What It Means:

The points are a new season-high for Anthony, who also poured in 27 points on Wednesday and has now shot a combined 21-for-34 (61.8 percent) over the past two outings. It looks like he's put a poor December behind him to open the new year, helping the Thunder to a 6-3 record this month along the way.

Anthony scored 48.5 FanDuel points on Saturday, compared to his average of 29.7 FanDuel points per game for the season.
