Carlos Delfino’s outstanding performance helps Milwaukee Bucks beat New York Knicks
Carlos Delfino is flying high as he scored a career-high 30 points in Milwaukee Bucks’ 100-95 victory against the New York Knicks at Bradley Centre.
In addition to the 30-point spurt, the dazzling Delfino had a double-double with 11 rebounds and two assists in the victory.
Knicks had no answer for Delfino for most part of the game. He was 8-of-13 shots from the floor and 8-of-10 from the line, having his way with the Knicks centre-forward Amar’e Stoudemire.
Bucks coach Scott Skiles appreciated Delfino’s hot shooting and said, “He normally gets about the same looks every night. Like a lot of players, when he sees a couple go in early he loosens up a little bit, and then he can have these games. He's had two
in a row, now, but he can have these games sprinkled in where he gets really hot, and that's obviously big for us.”
The small forward / shooting guard showed why he is one of the League’s elite players as he made a quick recovery from post-concussion syndrome and is now leading his team in a fantastic manner. He missed 32 games of the ongoing 2010-11 season as he was
under everyday observation from early November 2010 to the middle of January 2011.
Delfino said, “I will never forget that I was almost out for the season with an injury, so every single day I am so happy to answer the call.”
Delfino is on fire since the last two matches of the Bucks. He made a career-high eight 3-pointers and added a game high 26 points as the Bucks defeated New Jersey Nets 110-95 on Friday night. Delfino also pulled down three assists and eight rebounds. The
victory snapped the three-game losing streak of Milwaukee.
The Argentine is averaging 28 points, two 3-pointers and 43.5 minutes over his last two games of the season.
The 6 ft 6” tall Delfino is no doubt beyond comparison and well known for his three-point shooting ability.
