On Saturday (Nov. 24), the NBA featured seven games on the slate. Among the winning teams were the Milwaukee Bucks, Cleveland Cavaliers, and Golden State Warriors. These five players were among the stars in winning efforts during Saturday's action.
Kevin Durant - Golden State Warriors
It almost seems like a distant memory now that the Warriors had lost four games in a row. They've now won two-straight. Saturday's 117-116 win over the Kings was due in large part to Kevin Durant's 44 points, 13 rebounds, and seven assists.

Karl Anthony Towns - Minnesota Timberwolves
The Timberwolves have looked somewhat impressive since the Jimmy Butler trade. Karl-Anthony Towns came up with a major performance on Saturday as he scored 35 points, grabbed a game-high 22 rebounds, and dished out six assists. That helped Minnesota win 111-96 over the visiting Bulls.

Otto Porter Jr. - Washington Wizards
Porter Jr. is one of the unsung heroes in the NBA, and on Saturday night he gained recognition. Playing for a team that's considered dysfunctional right now, Porter Jr. came through with 29 points, seven rebounds, and four assists to help defeat New Orleans 124-114.

Collin Sexton - Cleveland Cavaliers
Could the Cleveland Cavs' luck be turning in a new direction? This team originally looked to be destined for the league's worst record. At the moment they've won two-straight. The most recent was a home win over Houston thanks to 29 points from rookie Collin Sexton.
