Among his major collaborators, Santiago Aldama Owner again. The Canary wants to make sure he’s another one after the summer sacrifice and his resignation from the national team, this time not reaching double figures like on his debut, but serving The record was impeccable.

On the other side, degas Usman GalbaThere was a Spanish ‘sophomore’ duel because the man from Madrid couldn’t do his part. The power forward is out of Houston’s rotation for the second game in a row, and coaches Stephen A. Cyrus You will be impressed with his excellent Eurobasket.

Star player of Los Angeles Lakers Luka Doncic Against the background of the embarrassing defeat of Houston Rockets (96:119), he explained what the team had to change to improve the results:
“I don’t know exactly what needs to change, but something definitely needs to change. We need to figure it out, that’s what we need to do. Everyone should discuss it.”
I know JJ Redick said it would be disturbing. And that’s the way it should be.
As I said, we need to discuss this. It may be uncomfortable, but everyone needs to try harder, starting with me.
We just have to challenge each other. Everyone should challenge themselves and their teammates. “There’s no way to play the way we play, so we’ve got to be better than that.”
