The Ukrainian spent more than twenty minutes on the court
Ukrainian center New York Knicks Dmitry Skapintsev played his first match in NBA Summer League.
The Knicks faced Charlotte and lost 90-94, but the game was productive for Skapintsev personally.
The Ukrainian spent 20 minutes 29 seconds on the court. Dmitry recorded 9 points, 7 rebounds, made 2 assists and distinguished himself with one spectacular block shot.
Skapintsev signed a two-way contract with the Knicks last December. Last season, the Ukrainian only played twice in the NBA — he played a little over two minutes in two games, without making any impact.
Skapintsev is the ninth Ukrainian in the NBA. The league also includes Alexander Volkov, Vitaliy Potapenko, Stanislav Medvedenko, Alexey Pecherov, Kirill Fesenko, Vyacheslav Kravtsov, Svyatoslav Mykhailiuk and Alexey Len.
