The Pacers lost the game 130-140 but Nwora equalled a record set by franchise legend Reggie Miller in 1994.

The Nigerian full-back netted 25 points in a single quarter, he recorded 33 points at the end of the match (12/17 shooting). 

He, therefore, remained stuck at a unit of his career-high signed when he played in Milwaukee.

Nwora also holds the record for points scored in a single match for Nigeria, scoring 36 points against Mali in 2018, erasing the 31 points of Ike Diogu.
