In the past eight years, only three MAVs have completed a meeting with at least 30 points and 10 assists. Luka Donteic obviously, Kyrie Irving too, and since last night … Naji Marshall.
Facing the Suns, the MAVS winger signed his best career match: 34 points (13/22 shots including 3/7 from afar, his record), 10 passes and 9 rebounds. For a rebound, he missed his first triple-double in career. But his explosion of the evening is not really sudden.
Facing the Kings, he had signed 18 points a week ago, then 22 in Milwaukee and finally 29 units, with 17 rebounds, facing the grizzly ones. In short, since four games, it has been running at 26 points (52% on shots), 10.5 rebounds and 5 passes on average! Naji Marshall, Dallas' new “superstar”?
“” Things are going well for me right now. Sometimes you come in 3-point fire, sometimes not. Sometimes you are effective, sometimes not “, summarizes Naji Marshall after yesterday's match. Its current production is much linked to the avalanche of injuries which Jason Kidd and his staff face. With Kyrie Irving, Anthony Davis and the others at the infirmary, he recovers a number of shots tickets.
His best career season
“” We appreciate his efforts “Note the Texan coach hoping that the series of his player will continue. “” We need that, we need him to convert 3-point shots and defend on the big ones. So we ask him a lot. Its ability to mark at the outlet of Dribble is important for us “Note the coach.
The 27 -year -old, who arrived in the big league in 2020 without being drafted, had never had so much offensive responsibilities. Beyond this current sequence, he signed his best career season with more than 12 points on average (50% on shots).
“” I'm just trying to keep a high pace, to push the tempo. Take the rebound and push. Make stops, take the rebound and push “, Formulas the one who is mainly supported by Klay Thompson in” scoring “at the moment. Even if, collectively, his efforts do not pay. The MAVs are on a series of five setbacks in a row.
“” I have the feeling that in the last two games, we fought and we played hard. I can't wait to be on the side of the winners. It was a good game (Facing the Suns) From our part to all, but we must go to the next “, He displays. Asked about the potential of this whole team, Naji Marshall wonders: ” It didn't happen, so I don't know. But I hope that when you are healthy, you can be a team that targets the title. »»
