Jakob Poeltl Ends Double-Double Drought
4 years agoSan Antonio Spurs center Jakob Poeltl collected a nice 19-point, 10-rebound double-double in Friday's win over Utah, adding three blocks and a pair of assists. It's his first double-double since a 16-point, 13-rebound effort on Jan. 27 against Chicago. Poeltl has seen his minutes go up with LaMarcus Aldridge (shoulder) missing, but he's been fairly quiet since the restart. Hopefully, this will give him some nice momentum ahead of Sunday's matchup with New Orleans. The Pelicans haven't protected the rim very well this season, allowing opposing centers to shoot 56.5 percent from the field.
