Basketball (NBA):
Omri Casspi is having his best season since first becoming an NBA player in 2009. On Dec 27, Portland defeated the Kings in Sacramento, 94-98, yet Casspi recorded his fifth double-double of the season, scoring 14 points and grabbing 10 rebounds in 37 minutes of playing time. He was also credited with two blocked shots in that game. This is the most double-doubles Casspi has had in a single season in his NBA career, and made three double-doubles in the last four games for the 6'9" (206 cm) forward. On Dec 28, the Kings were expectedly defeated by the red-hot Golden State Warriors in Oakland, 103-122. Casspi was on fire himself, scoring a new NBA personal-best 36 points in 35 minutes on 13-for-18 shooting (9-for-12 from 3-point land). He is continuing to have difficulty connecting on his free-throws, though. The Kings now have a 12-19 won-loss record this season. Omri Casspi has scored 386 points (12.9 average) and has grabbed 195 rebounds (6.5 average) in 30 games this season.
