In his NBA debut, rookie guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander posted a solid 11 points and 4 assists. This performance was propelled by his playing minutes.
Doc Rivers’ rotations had Gilgeous-Alexander coming off of the bench, however, he ended up logging roughly 28 minutes. More impressively, Gilgeous-Alexander played with aggression and shot an efficient 83 percent from the field. Just about every Clippers fan everywhere should be giving praise to Jerry West and LA’s front office with their decisions to trade for Gilgeous-Alexander in the draft.
Basically, Gilgeous-Alexander — the youngest player on the LA Clippers roster — is as offensively gifted as they come.
