Fresh off a career night in mid-December, rookie big man Alperen Sengun said he planned to work on his post moves in the future with legendary Houston Rockets center Hakeem Olajuwon.
A few weeks later, it appears those training sessions with the two-time NBA champion, league MVP, and Hall of Famer are now underway.
On Saturday, the Rockets released a video of Olajuwon working with Sengun in a one-on-one session on the Toyota Center practice court.
“I watch him play,” Olajuwon says of Sengun in the team’s video. “It seems like he’s very strong, the way he backs guys down. What we need now is the control of the ball, and his spin.”
The video goes on to show Olajuwon working with Sengun on the technique and timing of his spin move, among other things.
Just 19 years old, Sengun is averaging 8.8 points (48.8% FG), 4.6 rebounds, and 2.5 assists in 18.0 minutes per game. The 6-foot-10 big man from Turkey was drafted at No. 16 overall in the 2021 first round.
