Kassius Robertson, player of the day 28 after celebrating postponed games

Obradoiro’s defender, Kassius Robertson, was named player of the day on the 28th after the postponed games were played on Wednesday (Bilbao Basket-Tenerife, 60-83; and Zaragoza-Manresa, 99-88). Robertson gets this recognition thanks to the 40 rating points he achieved in his team’s match against Baskonia.

in front of the Victorian, Robertson had a historic performance by adding 44 baskets, which is the fourth record for the number of points in the Endesa League in the 21st century. The Canadian achieved such a result thanks to five of seven two-point shots, nine of fourteen three-pointers and seven of seven free throws. Despite the resulting inspiration, Robertson could not avoid defeat against the team from Vitoria.

Already a historic player within Obradoiro (he’s second all-time in scoring and third in minutes played), the shooting guard completed his stellar day by adding two defensive rebounds and a rebound. How else, this kind of exhibition was also recognized by the audience in the Buesa Arena, who gave him a standing ovation after a great performance.

It is Robertson’s second Player of the Day award after the 15th round of the 2020-2021 season.
