Sharing an email that was shared with me from Eurobasket.com . Yes, I know that Harden and Dort are on this report for some reason, but most the information here is on the other players:
#1. James Harden (6'5''-SG-89, graduated '09, plays pro in the NBA) could not help the Houston Rockets (3-6) in their last game. Despite his very good performance the Houston Rockets (3-6) were badly defeated120-102on the road by the Los Angeles Lakers. Harden was the second best scorer with 20 points. He also added 6 rebounds, 9 assists and made 2 blocks in 38 minutes. But this is still an early stage of the season and everything may happen. It's Harden's ninth year with the team. Harden has individually a very good season with high stats. He averages 24.8ppg, 5.1rpg and 10.4apg in eight games he played so far.

Gerry Blakes (6'4''-SG-93, graduated '16, plays in France) led his French team Cholet Basket to a victory over the closely-ranked Tsmoki-Minsk (2-3) 89-71 in the Basketball Champions League on Tuesday night.
