NBA – More empowered by Ime Udoka, Alperen Sengun is approaching his third year in the league with enthusiasm.
With a smile on his lips, Alperen Sengun obviously could not hide his happiness when answering a journalist’s question about his new freedom in the Rockets attack.
” Yeah [j’ai plus de liberté] “, appreciates Fred VanVleet’s new friend. “It’s kind of a different team. Of course, I feel different myself, but not everything has completely changed on offense. »
Placed at the heart of Houston’s attack under the orders of Ime Udoka, who sees him as a “mini-Jokic” and who believes ” that he does everything very well », Alperen Sengun was already able to let his creative talents shine during the Texans’ first preseason meeting against the Pacers.
Helping the Rockets get back on track
A match during which the Turk, eager to appear in the next All-Star Game, notably delivered 4 assists in 24 minutes (and no lost balls), to go with his 15 points, 5 rebounds, 2 blocks.
“It’s my game, I always play this way
», recalls the 21-year-old pivot, among the main architects of the success against Indiana thanks to his shifts with the ball in hand. ” With [Ime Udoka], I think it will be like this. It’s my game, I feel more comfortable like that, I love sharing the ball. »
Author of a 2022/23 exercise of good quality individually (14.8 points, 9.0 rebounds, 3.9 assists), Alperen Sengun could therefore take an additional step with the arrival of Ime Udoka.
Even if, at the end of a successful summer, the person concerned first says that he “only cares about victory and not about [ses] statistics “. Leaving us to understand that his gaze is focused above all on the results of the Rockets, and therefore on the playoffs, which have been denied to the Texan franchise since 2020…
