The state has improved significantly in the second game! Does the starting center of the Rockets second team still have certain strength?
2:14am, 16 November 2025【Basketball】
In a previous NBA Development League game, the Texas Legends, an NBA Development League affiliate of the Dallas Mavericks, defeated the Rio Grande Valley Vipers, an affiliate of the Houston Rockets, at home, 119-110. After this game, the Texas Legends' record improved to 2 wins and 2 losses, while the Rio Grande Valley Vipers suffered two consecutive losses after the start of the season and currently have a record of 0 wins and 2 losses.

In this game, although the Vipers lost the game, the performance of the team's starting center Efe Abogidi actually had some highlights. Abokidi played 30 minutes, shooting 9 of 15, 2 of 7 from beyond the three-point line, and 2 of 2 free throws. He scored 24 points, 6 rebounds, 1 steal, and 4 blocks. He also had 1 turnover and 2 fouls. His plus-minus value was also the highest among the starters - 6. Abokidi showed comprehensive scoring ability on the offensive end. He also scored a lot of points through various methods, which can be regarded as providing a lot of support to the team. Even though he didn't take too many shots, he also seized the opportunity to prove his versatility on the offensive end. Not only that, Abokidi's performance on the defensive end is also remarkable. He also showed good inside defense and frame protection abilities. Overall, Abokidi's performance in this game can be regarded as both offensive and defensive, and this performance far exceeded everyone's expectations for him.

In the previous game when the team lost to the Oklahoma City Blue, an affiliate of the Oklahoma City Thunder, Abokidi made 2 of 5 shots and 0 of 1 from beyond the three-point line in 27 minutes of playing time. He only scored 4 points, 6 rebounds and 2 blocks, as well as 1 turnover and 2 fouls. The plus-minus value was as low as -21. Abokidi's performance in the previous game can be said to be terrible. He had no sense of presence on the offensive end and his scoring ability was not used at all. He also did not have a very good effect on the defensive end and was beaten by his opponents in various ways. After such an outrageous performance in his debut, Abokidi's condition is also very worrying. Unexpectedly, in this game, Abokidi quickly recovered his form and proved his strength.

Abokidi was born in October 2001. He is 24 years old, 206cm tall and weighs 103kg. He is the undrafted player in the 2023 NBA draft. Abokidi has a very strange career resume. He first played two seasons in the NCAA at Washington State University, and then spent one season in the NBA Development League. Last season, he joined Australia's NBL1 Central, a semi-professional league, and entered the NBL1 Central all-star lineup. However, after all, NBL1 Central's competitiveness is limited. Even if his performance is good enough, it will be difficult to attract everyone's attention. This summer, Abokidi also chose to return to the NBA Development League and joined the Vipers. Judging from the performance in these two games, Abokidi still has certain abilities, but he has quite a problem with stability. I don’t know if Abokidi can perform more consistently in the future.
