Recently, Warriors core Klay Thompson retweeted a scoring highlight of Tianjin foreign aid Rochester on his social media, with the caption: "@Rochester is that person!" I saw you bro! ”
In the previous CBA league, Shandong faced Tianjin, and Tianjin defeated the powerful Shandong team with the play of foreign aid Rochester and won the victory. Rochester played 36 minutes in this game, shooting 12 of 19 from the field and 5 of 8 from three-point range, with 38 points, 5 rebounds and 9 assists!
Many people may not know why Klay Thompson will retweet Rochester's video, but the two were teammates in college, when both played for Washington State University. After leaving the university, Rochester began to break into the European League, playing in Germany, Turkey, France, Spain, Italy, Russia, Israel, Serbia and other national leagues!
In 2018, Rochester arrived in Tianjin to represent Tianjin in the CBA League, and then at the end of last year, Tianjin officially announced that he would sign another contract for the second stage of the CBA! So far this season, Rochester has played 17 games, averaging 30.8 minutes per game and averaging 21.4 points, 4.3 rebounds and 6.4 assists. The shooting percentage is 50%, the three-point shooting rate can reach 48.2%, and the free throw shooting rate is 90.9%!
As the absolute core of the Tianjin team, although Rochester is 36 years old, he is still one of the better foreign aides in the CBA league, and I believe that under his leadership, Tianjin team can still have a certain competitiveness this season!
