Ballers Abroad takes us to Hungary for the first time this season, where rookie forward James Dickey had an impressive game in his first game as a pro. The 6'10 big man out of UNC Greensboro put up 18 points and grabbing an eye-popping 17 rebounds for Naturtex-SZTE-Szedeak, hitting 8-of-9 shots from the floor in his team's 89-67 victory over JP Auto-JKSE. Dickey also stuffed the stat sheet in other ways, blocking 5 shots while also dishing out 3 assists. If this debut is any indication, the future looks bright for Dickey and SZTE this season, and if he can continue to produce, he'll grab the rest of Europe's attention for sure! All of this makes him an easy nod for Baller of the Week!
