Former Warrior Alen Smailagic drops 32 points in debut for KK Partizan
After two seasons in the NBA, Alen Smailagic’s run with the Golden State Warriors came to an end during the 2021 offseason. In August, Smailagic returned to Serbia to sign with Belgrade’s KK Partizan.
In a contest against AS Monaco, Smailagic recorded an impressive debut for his new club. As the game turned into a double-overtime thriller, the 21-year-old forward went off, scoring 32 points for his new squad.
Smailagic showed off his full repertoire of scoring skills, drilling 3-pointers and driving to the bucket to score inside.
Along with dropping a game-high 32 points, Smailagic added eight boards, two assists and two blocks in Partizan’s 120-114 victory over Monaco.
