Blazers' swingman Rudy Fernandez is trying to adapt to the physicality of the NBA game.

"It's more physical. Everybody is strong. It's more difficult for me on defense, but I try to be more aggressive," Fernandez said.

"It's a big change for me. In Europe it's not too physical. It's a new experience for me."

Fernandez is currently averaging 13.6 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 2 assists per game in 28.3 minutes and ranks second in the league in three-point field goals made (24).
