When James Harden of the Houston Rockets hit a right-corner three over Josh Jackson of the Suns with 4:38 to go in the third quarter Monday night, it gave the reigning NBA MVP 30 points for the game.

He’d go on to score 14 more in Houston’s 118-110 win over Phoenix, extending his amazing streak of games with 30 or more points to 27 straight.

What Harden is doing is unprecedented in modern basketball. In fact, this season only 32 players around the league have even had back-to-back games with 30 or more.

Guess what? You get to name them. That’s your Trivia Tuesday challenge this week — name every NBA player with at least back-to-back 30-point outbursts. We’ve given you the team each plays for and eight minutes, you just need to name the player.

Have fun!
