The Rio Grande Valley Vipers won their third G-League title last week, downing the Long Island Nets in three games, and the victory was highlighted by the play of occasional Houston Rockets center, Isaiah Hartenstein, who was named G-League Finals MVP for his dominating performance.
For the series, Hartenstein averaged 28 points, 15.7 rebounds, 2.3 assists, and 1.6 blocked shots on 51 percent shooting from the field. The big man even showcased a part of his game that should endear him to the Houston coaching staff and front office, knocking down 13 three pointers in the series, including going a ridiculous 8-9 from beyond the arc in a 33-point, 13-rebound, 2-block tour de force in Game 2 that turned around the series for the Vipers.
