On February 20, 2012, Serge Ibaka blocked 11 shots, assisting the Oklahoma City Thunder in a 124-118 victory over the Denver Nuggets. This is his 3rd game in the fiscal month he has blocked more than 10 shots in a game.
Why is this significant? Since the 1985-86 season, one other person has blocked more than 10 shots in a fiscal calendar month. The player? David Robinson in Feb 1990. Former players who were known for their shot blocking abilities such as Manute Bol, Shawn Bradley, Mark Eaton, Dikembe Mutombo, Hakeem Olajuwon, and Marcus Camby were not able to achieve this feat.
