On Saturday (Nov. 17), NBA fans saw some amazing performances. In particular, the Charlotte Hornets' Kemba Walker left his heart out on the court, scoring a new career-high. Unfortunately, he also had his heart broken on a game-winner by the Sixers' Jimmy Butler. There were also plenty of other star performances, so here are five of the best from Saturday's slate!
Kemba Walker - Charlotte Hornets
Walker is the heart and soul of the Hornets and that was especially true on Saturday. The All-Star guard had 60 points, seven rebounds, and four assists. It was a new career-high, but Kemba and the Hornets would fall 122-119 after a Jimmy Butler buzzer-beating three.

Anthony Davis - New Orleans Pelicans
It's becoming a nightly thing, but that's almost an expectation with this guy. On Saturday, Anthony Davis had 40 points, 8 rebounds, and 8 assists to lead the Pelicans to a 125-115 victory over the Denver Nuggets.
