Rockets' Alperen Sengun is flashing growth in the most important area in EuroBasket

Houston Rockets big man Alperen Sengun has been showing out in the 2025 FIBA EuroBasket tournament. He's also demonstrated growth in the one area the Rockets need him to grow in the most.

That's not all he's doing. Sengun has been generally dominant. He even outplayed arguably the best player in the world. Turkey beat Serbia, and Sengun's 28 points, 13 rebounds, and 8 assists trumped Nikola Jokic's 22, 9, and 4.

For the tournament, Sengun is averaging 21.6 points, 9.6 rebounds, and 6.8 assists per game. Rockets fans will take note of those dimes.
