I Scored Eleven Points In a League Game and My Teammates Chanted MVP


Anthony Peeler was a Lakers first-round pick in 1992. He is one of the NBA's bona fide pure shooters.


I had the best game of my life.

I scored eleven points in a league game (the highest numbers I ever put up in an organized league game).

We won our first game. We've played seven.

My teammates started chanting "MVP-MVP-MVP" afterwards. I was flattered.
