Lauri Markkanen Hype & Appreciation Thread

Swuul said:
I was told he had common stomach flu, spraying from both ends for a day and a half. If true, it would take a couple days after that to be back in full shape; ie if it was play-offs he surely might have been playing (on limited minutes), but no reason for that during regular season.

I'm sure he is happy that that bit of info surfaced.

Playing sports with the flu is a great way to get myocarditis, which could take years to fully recover from. Some get permanent damage.

These guys are huge investments. No way teams are gonna risk that if they can avoid it.

Good stuff.

Kessler ranks 4th for high volume rim protectors (behind Lopez and essentially tied with Claxton and Zubac) and Lauri ranks 8th (essentially tied with #6 Sabonis and #7 Capela).

Stats Leaders: Top rim protectors include Giannis Antetokounmpo & Draymond Green

Examining which players have excelled at protecting the rim thus far in the 2022-23 season.

Lauri also ranks 5th in DFG% and FG% differential inside 6 feet.

Quite impressive rim numbers for a guy Chicago kept in the corner shooting 3s....

Lauri making pretty strong arguments for being included in the all-star game.

Tbh I think he needs a few statement games (35/10ish) or we need to improve our standing for him to get in.

He has been awesome, but the AS is more about raw numbers and big nights than efficiency. This equal opportunity system we have might end up denying him.

I hope it doesnt. I truely hope he gets noticed by people outside Utah..
