Raptors star Scottie Barnes records historic triple-double in overtime comeback win over Warriors
Scottie Barnes went off for the Toronto Raptors on Sunday afternoon.
Barnes dropped a monster triple-double to lead the Raptors to a 141-127 overtime win against the Golden State Warriors at Scotiabank Arena on Sunday. He had the triple-double secured before overtime began, and had a career-high 25 rebounds in the win — which is the most recorded by a player in a single game anywhere in the league so far this season. It also matched the Raptors' franchise record set by Bismack Biyombo in 2016.
Barnes had 23 points and 10 assists to go with his rebounds. It marked the seventh triple-double of his career, and the first ever 20-20 triple-double in Raptors history. Barnes is now just the second player since 1980 to record a 20-25-10 game anywhere in the league, along with Denver Nuggets star Nikola Jokić.
The Warriors seemed well on pace to grab the win in Canada on Sunday afternoon, and held a four-point lead entering the fourth quarter. But Toronto ended regulation on a 9-2 burst and forced overtime after Barnes tipped in a rebound to tie the game up with about 23 seconds left. Brandon Ingram had a look to win it at the end, but he was off the mark.

By then, the Warriors were done. The Raptors opened the extra period on a 10-0 run and ended up out-scoring Golden State 19-5 in overtime to cruise to the 14-point win.
Stephen Curry led the Warriors with 39 points, 14 of which came in the third quarter alone. He didn’t score once in overtime, however, and went 4-of-11 from behind the arc. Draymond Green added 21 points and seven assists, and Jimmy Butler finished with 19 points.
The loss snapped a three-game win streak for Golden State, which now sits at 16-16 on the season. They’ll take on the Brooklyn Nets in New York on Monday night in the second game of a three-game road trip.
Immanuel Quickley had 27 points and seven assists to go with Barnes’ triple-double. Brandon Ingram added 26 points. They shot 51% from the field as a team and scored 35 points off of the Warriors’ 21 turnovers.
Barnes and the Raptors now hold a 19-14 record after the win, which was their second in their last three games. They’ll host the Orlando Magic next on Monday night.
