Among the top performers on the final day of games was ACB prospect
Santiago Yusta. Playing steady minutes with Obradoiro this season averaging 5 points and 2 rebounds per game coming off the bench, Yusta is known for his flashy passing, defensive instincts, toughness, and craftiness off the dribble, but made perimeter shots at a strong rate today, a nice change of pace from his struggles during the regular season. His release appears to have improved a bit, and coupled with his slashing ability, make him a player to watch next season. Lacking the most polished decision-making ability attacking the rim on the move, Yusta could raise his profile considerably if he can become a more consistent decision maker and a reliable threat from beyond the arc given his size, athleticism, and instincts. He has some interesting tools to build off long term, and the experience he's garnered seeing steady playing time in the ACB the past two years make him someone to track next season.
