The best case scenario is Harden cracks the list.
I think Trae has a big game. Not gonna say 50+ but a big opening night game. Poole as well.
Simons would be a choice but they’ll stick PG on him if he starts going off.
Tyler Herro
This is all team’s 1st games of the season.
Not all of these games qualify as Opening Night.
For example, only players from the Lakers, Nuggets, Suns, & Warriors can qualify as playing on Opening Night this season.
Booker or KD would probably be the picks to drop 50, but the other one of them has to have down night scoring wise.
That kyrie one was crazy, first game with new team and almost hit the slip n slide game winner
