Oklahoma City Thunder rookie Tre Mann just came out with the best performance of his career on Monday night in a 132-123 loss against the Boston Celtics. The 21-year-old dropped a team-high 35 points against Jayson Tatum and Co. as Mann set the new franchise record for most points by a rookie.

Not even Kevin Durant or Russell Westbrook reached these heights when they first came into the league, which makes Mann's scoring milestone on Monday night even more impressive:

Mann looked like a man on a mission on Monday night and it's not as if this was a scoring fluke. This was the former Florida standout's second 30-point scoring game of the season. He's eclipsed the 20-point mark five times since taking over as a starter for the Thunder back in January.

Unfortunately for Mann and Co., his scoring outburst was not enough to save OKC from losing another game. This is now the Thunder's 10th consecutive loss as the season continues to get from bad to worse from this team.

Then again, OKC was never expected to be competitive this year as they continue to develop their young players. It goes without saying that they have been quite successful in this particular area.
