EDGE Analysis

Thornton is on a special run, recording points in seven straight, including 17 of his last 18 outings. The 36-year-old has 35 points in his last 27 games, placing the former No. 1 pick at an elite level yet again. You can't ask for much more from the 17-year veteran, who doesn't look his age one bit.
