Nathan Sestina might be a new name for some 7DAYS EuroCup fans, but the first-year Turk Telekom Ankara forward is quickly making a name for himself in the competition. In his second start of the season on Tuesday evening, the 25-year-old scored a team-high 20 points as Turk Telekom blew out the London Lions 102-74 to go top of the Group B standings.
Not only were his shooting percentages impressive – he went 4-of-6 on two-pointers (66.7%), 3-of-8 from deep (37.5%) and 3-of-3 from the free-throw line (100.0%) – but he also stood out with his overall energy and hustle. Sestina finished the game with just 2 rebounds, his lowest tally of the season, but he recorded 3 steals and made life incredibly difficult for London with his constant movement on offense.
