The 9 Best NBA Performances From Last Week: Damian Lillard Drops 59 on the Jazz

1. Damian Lillard vs. Utah Jazz

Gobert got the best of the Blazers early on this week. However, it was Damian Lillard who got the last laugh Saturday night in Portland. That was when and where the star point guard scorched them for 59 points in just 41 minutes.

To say Dame was on fire would be an understatement. He shot 18 of 34 from the field, 9 of 14 from three and 14 of 16 from the line. He burned his way to a true shooting of 71.9% on an insane usage of 46.6%. Needless to say, on the back of Lillard's 111.17 nERD, the Blazers got the win by the count of 101-86.
