Grizzlies' Santi Aldama: Game-high 27 points in loss
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.

Grizzlies' Santi Aldama: Star man for Spain
Aldama is on the Spanish national team's roster for the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Aldama was Spain's focal point during their Olympic-qualifying run, averaging 17.0 points, 8.0 rebounds, 1.8 blocks and 1.5 assists in 26.5 minutes across four contests. With the 23-year-old being the only player on the roster currently signed to an NBA team, he will likely be at the heart of any success Spain achieves in Paris.

Grizzlies' Santi Aldama: Excelling in Olympic qualifiers
Aldama (foot) has suited up for the Spanish national team in all three of its Olympic qualifying tournament games thus far in July, averaging 18.7 points, 8.3 rebounds, 2.0 blocks, 1.3 assists and 0.7 steals in 26.3 minutes per contest.
Aldama has performed well in wins over Lebanon, Angola and Finland and can help Spain secure its spot in the 2024 Paris Olympics with a win Sunday over The Bahamas. The Grizzlies shut Aldama down for the final seven games of the season with a right foot strain, but his involvement with the Spanish national team this summer suggests he'll face no restrictions once NBA training camps get underway.

Aldama's next chance to play will come Friday against Detroit for the opening portion of a back-to-back set. He should be expected to miss one of those games, if not both.
