Hugo González, slaps LeBron: what a night he has to give him a beating

ByDavid Mitchell

Hugo González and his team had to be the ones to show up to Philadelphia and attack the home of LeBron James and company to lead them to humiliation and the first doubts of the season (101-123) with the second defeat in three games. And with the personal seal of a Hugo who was more Hugo than ever.

Audacious nemesis of stars, the former Real Madrid player stopped The King in several plays, although no action was as tremendous as the melee with which the 20-year-old forward managed to stop the 41-year-old legend in the paint. Hugo’s titanic defense of LeBron took on overtones of poetry, both of them suspended in the air so that the brave forward ended up winning the fight.

The Spanish international made the most of his time on the court, with 10 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 steals and 1 block in 19 minutes with 4/6 in field goals and 2/4 in triples. His plus-minus of +17 reflected Hugo’s great positive impact.
