Tatum notched 34 points (9-16 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 11-11 FT), eight rebounds, nine assists, a steal and a block across 29 minutes in Friday's 119-80 win over the Hornets.
Tatum could've easily ended with a triple-double had he played something closer to the 35.1 minutes per game he was averaging before Friday's slate. The star forward, who returned from a one-game absence due to rest, surpassed the 30-point mark for the fourth time in eight appearances this season.
