Howard (21 years, 343 days old) replaced Shaquille O’Neal as the youngest player to grab 3000 career rebounds. He now has 3003 career rebounds
Nets leading scorer Richard Jefferson struggled as he finished with only 15 points on 4-19 shooting. Perennial point guard Kidd posted a huge triple-double with career high 19 rebounds, 11 points and 10 assists. Antoine Wright had 14 points and Bostjan Nachbar added 13 points for the Nets. The Nets who are playing without Vince Carter dropped their fourth straight game.
