Hawks draftee Lucas Nogueira had two points and three rebounds for Asefa Estudiantes Madrid in a 79-71 loss to Gipuzkoa Sunday in Spain’s ACB League. It was the final regular-season game for Estudiantes (12-22) which did not qualify for the playoffs.

Nogueira played 16:33 in the contest.

Nogueira, who left the team for two months to come to the United States for rehabilitation for tendinitis in his knees, played 18 games for Estudiantes this season and averaged 6.2 points and 4.1 rebounds in 17 minutes. He is expected to play with the Hawks in the Las Vegas Summer League in July.
