SubscribeOmri Casspi: Day One (and beyond)
The Jerusalem Post published this assessment of Omri Casspi’s debut for the Sacramento Kings.
Last night, Casspi scored 15 points, including 3-4 from three-point range, to help the Kings win their home opener, beating the Memphis Grizzlies in overtime, 127-116, to pick up their first victory of the young season. He also had two blocked shots and two steals.
As Jason Jones reports in today’s Sacramento Bee, “Its not taking long for Casspi to shine.”
As for that meeting between Casspi and Hamed Haddadi,the grizzlies’ Iranian-born center (from Interbasket.net):
So much for the gesture of international peace, after playing in each of the three previous games, Hamed Haddadi of Iran registered his first DNP of the season, in a game against the first Israeli NBA player Omri Casspi. Read into that how you will. Haddadi had previously mentioned that he was open to reaching out to Casspi before the game to shake his hand; I’m not sure if that happened.
