Stephen Silas: Alperen Şengün became the game director

Stephen Silas, head coach of the NBA team Houston Rockets, said that national basketball player Alperen Şengün has become a player who leads the team and gives responsibility on offense with his talent.

Silas made statements to the press about the performance of Alperen Şengün, who plays for the Rockets, and his help in the earthquake.

Emphasizing that Alperen continues to improve his game, especially in terms of offense, Silas said: “This season, he has become a player we take responsibility for offensively. He used to be a player that we just preferred to pair up with a few players or think about bringing over from the bench. Now, on behalf of the team, he has become a basketball player who has more of the ball in his hands and directs the game across the court or under the basket.” he used his statements.

Stating that young players always need to work hard, Silas said: “He takes advantage of his talent to score in pivot positions facing back or to help his teammates score. It enables the team to be more productive with its talents and the opportunities it creates. He was included in the game from the wing last season, but this season he has a big role in our team’s offense. In this way, he contributes more to the team in points, rebounds and assists. His “triple-double” and other performances in games this season prove it ”. he said.

Expressing that they talked to Alperen about the points they need to improve, the USA coach said: “There are points they need to improve in their defense. A player who is in the top 5 of the team must also be good in defense and protect his place. He could be better at this. But overall, it’s his second year in the league. He is only 20 years old and he is doing a good job.” He made the assessment of him.

“HE SHOWED THE PERSONALITY THAT HE HAS SHOWN TO THE SURROUNDINGS”

Stephen Silas stated that Alperen Şengün showed the type of personality he had with the help he gave to those affected by the earthquakes in Kahramanmaraş.

Stating that the other players on the team, the technical committee, and the Rockets organization also supported Alperen’s efforts to raise money, Silas shared his views:

“We found out that no one in your family was injured at the time of the earthquake, and we were happy about this. We saw even better what kind of character he had after the earthquake. He used his fame and his positive influence on people to benefit those who needed help. 20-year-olds usually think more of themselves than others at that age, but he took responsibility and helped people. He collected donations for them. I’m sure you want to do more, but we’re in the middle of basketball season. He showed those around him what kind of personality he had. He loves his people, people love him, and when that mutual love comes together, good things happen.” (AA)
