On December 20, Beijing time, in an NBA regular season game that ended today, the Sacramento Kings defeated the San Antonio Spurs 121-114.
In this game, the Kings performed very hot on the offensive end, with a total of three people scoring 20+ points, including the team's third center, Damian Jones, came off the bench today, shooting 9 of 15, 2 of 3 points, 3 of 3 free throws, 2 points, 2 of 2 free throws, 23 points, 8 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 blocks. Kings starting center Holmes was unable to play, and damian Jones was promoted to the position of substitute center because of this, and he seized the opportunity to show his ability.
Jones has played for the Warriors and Lakers, always on the edge of the rotation lineup, with a certain protective frame and pie eating ability, but not prominent, so there is no chance to get out, and today he showed that he has three points ability, under today's basketball trend, centers with outside threats are tens of millions, similar to Wood and Turner, I don't know how these two teams will feel when they see Jones' performance.
In today's interview, Houston Rockets coach Silas spoke about Jaylen Green's recovery, "He's one hundred percent closer to a comeback than he was in the previous few days." Because he hadn't played for such a long time before. He is very close to a comeback and hopefully this will happen in the next 3 or 4 games. Silas said that in the future four consecutive games, the Rockets will face four teams of Bulls, Bucks, Pacers and Hornets.
I believe that hearing the news of Green's comeback, the heart of the Rockets fans must be very contradictory, in the absence of Green during this time, the Rockets played a 9-4 result, and the overall performance of the team is very good, the last game to win the Pistons in the team a total of seven people scored in double-figures, and in the absence of Green, Christopher, Matthews and other players have gained more game time, played a good performance, but in this team, only Green's talent is enough to grow into a superstar, If the Rockets want to increase their ceiling, they must continue to cultivate him vigorously, and sacrificing records is necessary.
