Author of 17 points and 18 rebounds on his debut with the Grand Rapids Gold, Petr Cornelie has chained the double-doubles all week in the G-League. The Olympic silver medalist was used a lot with for example 38 minutes in his second game, for 21 points and 11 rebounds. Very present in the painting, he was on the other hand awkward on shooting with his first match as the only exit at 50% on shots. He points to a small 3/20 at 3-points for example on his first three appearances.
In any case, Petr Cornelie is the second best rebounder in the G-League at the start of the season, with 14 catches per game, to go with his 16 points and 4 assists on average. Still in the statistics department, Axel Toupane is the 19th best scorer with 22 points and 8 rebounds on average. His Santa Cruz Warriors on the other hand were defeated on the wire last night, facing 30 points from Jazz rookie, Jared Butler, author of 30 points including the basket of the win.
Yves Pons in doubles doubles for his debut
If Joël Ayayi was able to breathe a little after a busy start to the season, the Memphis Hustle of Killian Tillie and Yves Pons will go on two games this week, the first of which ended in a victory against Texas (106-100 ), the second in a row.
The French rookie out of Tennessee did not miss his first steps with his new tunic since he finished with 15 points, 12 rebounds and 3 blocks. At his side, Killian Tillie finished at 13 points and 5 rebounds for his second appearance of the season.
Three Frenchies at OKC “Blue Blanc Rouge”
It was supposed to be a first in this match between the Warriors and the Blue: four French players shared the same ground in the G-League. If it is Axel Toupane (16 points) who was the best player of this quartet, as a good veteran of the circuit that he is, Oklahoma Cirt did indeed play his three Frenchies.
For his second outing with the Blue, Théo Maledon still exceeded ten in scoring, but without necessarily making sparks with a sober game of 11 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists. Holder at his side, Jaylen Hoard was also quite discreet with 5 small points. In the end, it was Olivier Sarr who, replacing, had the best game with 11 points and 3 rebounds in just 15 minutes.
