A daily glance inside the numbers from the world of sports:

NBA

• Kevin Garnett had his first 20-20 game of the season on Thursday, with 24 points and 21 rebounds in Minnesota's loss to San Antonio. And he didn't stop there: Garnett also was credited with six assists.

It was the 14th game of Garnett's NBA career in which he had six or more assists in addition to scoring 20 points and collecting 20 rebounds. Get this: All other active NBA players combined have produced only 11 such games!

• Tim Duncan had 13 points, nine rebounds and no blocked shots in 38 minutes in the Spurs' 90-88 victory over the Timberwolves. It was just the fourth time in his NBA career that, while playing more than 30 minutes, he finished with fewer than 15 points, fewer than 10 rebounds and no blocks -- and this was the first of those four games that the Spurs won.
