With his first triple-double, Nick Claxton made Jordi Fernandez proud
There are some nights in the regular season that are more important than others. For Nic Clactonthis pass through Boston will go down as his first career triple-double: 18 points, 11 rebounds and 12 assists in the win Networks.
However, not everything was obvious. Barely three days ago, already against Boston, the pivot finished 1/9 on shots. And in this same city, three and a half years ago, he experienced one of the worst moments of his young career with a shot failure (1/11) in a playoff match. This time, however, he flipped the script.
With that, he transformed himself into a real initiator of the offensive. Its 12 passes launched into orbit Michael Porter Jrauthor of 33 points (13/21 shooting, 4/6 from distance), including 16 in the final quarter. The last two baskets by the shooter, served by the pivot, turned the match, a symbol of the rediscovered alchemy between the “elders” of the group.
After the meeting, Jordi Fernandes did not hide his pride. “All the credit goes to him. He worked on his one-on-one game, his attacks in the circle, his aggressiveness and he put it all together. Now his cut has turned. That’s why I had his back so much… I’m proud of him. And happy for him because without him there is no victory.”emphasized the coach, who includes his player more than ever.
Because for Jordi Fernandezthis triple-double isn’t just a static line: it’s proof that his interior has added many weapons to his offensive arsenal. Nick Claxton is no longer content to finish at the end of the circle, he can dictate the pace, read the assists and punish hold-ups. Enough to help the Brooklyn offense.
