The Unicaja Malaga big man beocmes the first player in the history of the Endesa League to make 100% of his shots from the field in his first two games

2003-born Congolese center Yannick Nzosa continues to break records in his start in the competition.

With 5/5 from the field in his debut against MoraBanc Andorra and 4/4 against Baxi Manresa, the Unicaja Malaga big man  becomes the first player in the history of the Endesa League to make 100% of his shots from the field in his first two games. So far the best mark was a cumulative 5/5, which had been reached by several players.

He also breaks precocious records: Nzosa becomes the first player under 18 to score 10 points in his first two games in acb. Very few youngsters reached that amount on their debut, and none did it in their first two games in the 37-year acb era.

To realize the dimension, only three players under the age of 20 had achieved it in their first two games in the acb: Luis Scola (Gijón, 19 years old in 1999), Raúl López (Ourense, 18 years old in 1989) and Julián Ortiz (Barça, 19 years old in 1985).
