Nemanja Bjelica Records First Steals Of Season
4 years agoSacramento Kings forward Nemanja Bjelica entered Thursday as the NBA player who had played the most minutes in the 2020-21 season without recording a steal. That changed against the Miami Heat, as Bjelica same away with a pair of them. But the highlight of his night has to be the team-high 25 points he scored, going 11-for-21 from the field and 2-for-9 from deep. He also added eight rebounds and three assists. The Kings are currently missing multiple frontcourt pieces, including starting center Richaun Holmes (knee). If Holmes isn't back for the game against Chicago on Saturday, expect Bjelica to have another shot to post strong numbers.
