Rodriguez makes his case in 76ers' exhibition loss

Sergio Rodriguez has accomplished a lot since last playing in an NBA regular-season game on April 14, 2010.

A member of Real Madrid of the Liga ACB, Rodriguez was named the 2014 EuroLeague MVP. He also led his team to the 2015 EuroLeague title and the ACB championship in three of the last four seasons. The Spaniard also was all-ACB selection in each of the last three campaigns

But after six years in Spain, and six years away from the NBA, the 30-year-old decided this summer it was time to come back.

"This time, with my age, I felt I needed to get another opportunity here in the NBA," said Rodriguez, who signed a one-year, $8 million deal with the 76ers on July 13.
