23.2 points, 15.5 rebounds and 1.5 against for 32 evaluation per game: these are the maddening averages of Petr Cornelie during his last 4 outings in the G-League. And his last match perfectly sums up this good dynamic. Last night, he still scored 23 points and took 13 rebounds against the Greensboro Swarm, two days after his best performance in career (31 points, 19 rebounds). With the Grand Rapids Gold, a franchise affiliated with the Denver Nuggets, the French interior is taking place at the end of February. What potentially catch the eye of NBA franchise scouts.

After 13 Big League games with Denver, Cornelie is proving increasingly dominant in the G-League. Accumulating 17.1 points, 13.1 rebounds and 1.2 against in 16 games with Grand Rapids, the player trained at MSB begins the last month of the regular season, and intends to continue his momentum. A regularity that could allow him to return to the NBA floors soon, especially since he is currently playing alongside Isaiah Thomas, whose matches are arousing great interest across the Atlantic.
