MADRID, 19 Nov. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The Spanish power forward Santi Aldama shone this morning with a ‘double-double’ in the Memphis Grizzlies’ victory over the San Antonio Spurs (108-120), transferring his crisis to a Texan franchise that wasted its income and a new record of ‘ French rookie Victor Wembanyama.
At the Frost Bank Center in San Antonio, the canary, who arrived at the event after posting his best scoring record in the defeat against the Lakers (24), started from the bench and despite that he was the Tennessee franchise player with more minutes on the track -more than 35-.
Thus, he stood out with a ‘double-double’ of 17 points – 7 of 15 in field goals, 1 of 5 triples and 2 of 3 from the line – and 10 rebounds, to which he added 3 assists, a steal and a block, all in a match with a personal duel against Wembanyama.
The French center sealed another marvelous performance by scoring 19 points, capturing 13 rebounds and providing 4 assists, but above all by putting up 8 blocks, with which he equaled Tim Duncan and David Robinson as players with the most blocked shots in a single game as ‘ Spurs rookies.
