Košarkaš Asvela, Teo Maledon je najkorisniji igrač (MVP) četvrtog kola Evrolige.
Asvel je sinoć na domaćem terenu savladao Baskoniju 76:69, a Maledon je odigrao sjajan meč.
Za 28 minuta na terenu, Maledon je upisao 25 poena (6/13 iz igre), a imao je šest skokova i po tri asistencije i ukradene lopte za indeks korisnosti 36.
Maledon se ljetos nakon karijere u NBA ligi vratio u Evropu. Na početku sezone prosječno postiže 17,5 poena, uz pet skokova.
Asvel je na skoru 2-2, a u narednom kolu će gostovati Barseloni.
While most former NBA players returning to Europe are struggling to adjust, it looks like Theo Maledon never left ASVEL in the first place.

The 23-year-old guard is indeed starting the 2024-25 season with the French side in the best of ways and proved it once again in Pierre Poupet’s team’s home victory against Baskonia.
Putting up a career-high night with 25 points, 5 three-pointers, 3 steals, 2 blocks, and a PIR of 36, while also adding 6 rebounds, 3 assists, and 7 fouls drawn, he was named MVP of the EuroLeague Round 4. He was also clutch down the line banking in huge three-pointers.
“It was amazing. That’s what you dream of when you are a kid: having big-time plays in a big-time game. I’m just grateful and thankful to have this game”, he joyfully commented after the game.
To start the season, he has been averaging 17.5 points – shooting 50.0% from two and 90.0% at the line -, 5.0 rebounds, 3.2 assists, and 1.8 steals per game. During this four-game span, ASVEL is on a 2-2 record, having beaten both of last year’s Play-Ins finalists Virtus Bologna and Baskonia at home.
