With assistant Nets GM Frank Zanin in the stands, Juan Pablo Vaulet had his best game since returning from surgery, scoring 17 points in 20 minutes, shooting 7-of-12 overall, including a couple of spectacular dunks and a three pointer as his Bahia Blanca club beat San Lorenzo. It was the team's first win since he returned to action two weeks ago.
The Nets traded for Vaulet, a 6'7" combo guard, on Draft Night, sending two second round picks in 2018 and 2020 plus $880,000 to Charlotte who had taken him at No. 38. Vaulet was supposed to play in the Nets summer leagues, but not long after the draft, he was found to have suffered a stress fracture of his right ankle and underwent surgery instead.
