Aldama tallied 27 points (6-12 FG, 6-8 3Pt, 9-10 FT), five rebounds and two steals across 30 minutes in Spain's 92-80 loss to Australia in the Paris Olympics on Saturday.
Aldama came out firing against Australia, and he converted a game-high six threes in Saturday's loss. The 23-year-old is the only player for Spain currently on an NBA roster, and he proved his position as the top option in Spain's offense in their opening matchup of the group phase. The squad still has yet to play Canada and Greece in a stacked Group A, and Aldama will likely continue to serve as the focal point of the offense moving forward.
