Best and worst NBA performances, Nov 17, 2025
12 NBA players finished far above or below their usual on Nov 17, 2025, led by Jalen Duren (31 points).
The Above and Below lists hold games further from the player's usual than at least 95 in 100 comparable games, so an ordinary night still fills both lists. 123 eligible games on this night, so about 6 would land in each list even on an ordinary night. Fewer minutes than usual shows minutes only, never a score. Each list runs from the largest Game Score change down. "Early season" marks a usual line built from fewer than 20 of the player's games this season. How the score works
