Satnam Singh debuts in NBA

Indian hoopster scored four points, three rebounds and one assist against New Orleans Pelicans

Mumbai: Satnam Singh Bhamara, the first Indian hoopster to be drafted in a National Basketball Association team, has made his 2015 NBA Summer League debut for Dallas Mavericks against New Orleans in Las Vegas, USA.

The 7-foot 2-inch Satnam scored four points, three rebounds and one assist in a total game time of just over 10 minutes as New Orleans Pelicans had to play all 48 minutes in their 90-86 triumph over the Dallas Mavericks at the UNLV’s Cox Pavilion on Saturday.

A satisfied Satnam said he feels he will soon arrive on the big stage.“I feel better after playing my first Summer League game. After a year or two playing with the team I will come to that big moment (NBA first team debut),” said Satnam after playing the match.
