He totaled nine points, connecting on a triple and a nice mid-range turnaround jumper. It doesn’t stop there though.
Dillon Brooks just knows how to make things happen on the court. He makes key deflations that leads to steals and fast-breaks. He makes the extra pass for the open man. In addition, he doesn’t back down from a challenge.
Most of the night, he battled Steph Curry and Klay Thompson on defense and held his own for sure. Granted, Curry got him a few times, but who doesn’t he burn?
So far in two contests, Brooks has played 29 and 32 minutes. For the time being, it looks like he isn’t going anywhere.
Make your investments in the Dillon Brooks stock. Go buy his jersey (side-note: Just bought an Oregon one). This kid can ball out.
