Coming into Saturday’s game between Australia and Great Britain, only five players had scored 30 points or more in this years Olympics, and this years highest scoring performance was Carmelo Anthony’s 37-point game against Nigeria.

Anthony no longer holds that mark as San Antonio Spurs guard Patty Mills and Australia routed Great Britain Saturday  106-75 in a game where they were down 15-points in the second half, but Mills exploded for 39 points to hold the highest scoring mark this year in the Olympics.
