Houston Rockets center Alperen Sengun discussed feeling more comfortable when facing double teams after last night’s 122-116 home loss vs. the Los Angeles Clippers (23 points/19 rebounds/14 assists/2 steals/10-19 FG/3-8 FT/+2 +/-).
(via Rocket Fuel-A Houston Rockets show):
Reporter: “You’re coming off a career-high 45 points last night, and of course, career-high in assists, 14 tonight. Ime [Udoka] said after the game that you’re doing a lot better job passing out of the double team, do you feel like you’re getting more comfortable recognizing different coverages teams are throwing at you?”
Sengun: “I’m watching videos, I’m watching all that, films, what they do, how they’re guarding me. Before the game I know what they’re going to do, so I’m trying to play like that, how they’re guarding me, what they do to me. So yeah, that was important for me, I was struggling a little bit with double teams, but now, it’s much more easier for me.”
