Shavon Shields: We will build throughout the season and keep getting better every day
Shields scored a total of 514 points in the 37 Euroleague games played with Olimpia
Shavon Shields has restarted his EuroLeague career practically from the same point where he left off. With yesterday’s game, he has scored in double figures in 19 of his last 20 EuroLeague outings, he was the most used player with 28 minutes and also showed other faces of his game, besides the scoring one (15 of his 17 points were produced in the second half): he has captured seven rebounds and distributed five assists, for once. "We played great defense in the second half and that’s what allowed us to extend the lead and win the game – he said -. We weren’t guarding in the first half, but we stepped up in the second half and got it done. We’re growing as a team, we’re learning, we have a lot of new guys and this is only the start. Hopefully, we will build throughout the season and keep getting better every day." Yesterday Shavon Shields also exceeded 500 points scored in the EuroLeague for Olimpia. He had 497 at the start of the game. Now he has 514.
