24pts, 7rbs and 3asts

It looks like he shot like crap but salvaged it by going 10-10 from the free throw line.

Thanks

Lauri doing Giannis things.

What a power move. He looks ripped.

I just noticed this stat. Finland shot 3% better from 2, 9% better from 3, but they were just about even in total shooting percentage. How weird. (And, yeah, I understand it, but it is funny to see.)

Teams to watch (with current and former Jazzmen):

USA (Walker Kessler)
Philippines (Jordan Clarkson)
Finland (Lauri Markkanen)
Italy (Simone Fontecchio)
Canada (Kelly Olynyk)

Australia (Joe Ingles)
France (Rudy Gobert)
Brazil (Raul Neto)
Spain (Ricky Rubio)
Canada (Nickeil Alexander-Walker)

Any others?

Lauri had some first game rust on him, but he is in great shape. Lithuania is no joke as an opponent, so it was a good start to preparing towards world cup

Lauri looks like in great shape AND he was running with confidence. Starting to look like he KNOWS he’s the best player on the floor. His transition game & coast to coast was pretty damn impressive for his first game back. I’m going to predict that last year was no fluke and he’s going to continue getting better for the Jazz.

Bogey - Serbia

Wrong Bogey. The "Jazz Bogey" is croatian, and Croatia didn't make it to the World Cup.

Ah there’s another bogey. The thanks for the correction

Bojan Bogdanovic, former Jazz and current Pistons member, is croatian.

Bogdan Bogdanovic plays for Atlanta, and is a serb.

They are not related to each other.

Yeah I watched that game and he played fine but a bit rusty. Lithuania was collapsing their entire defense when Lauri drove with the ball in the 2nd half.

The Good:

• Whenever he had good balance, he shot well. Also perfect from free throw line.
• He tried to use his gravity to make plays for others more than before
• His cutting was sharp especially when cutting behind the defense. Lithiania had to foul him a lot.
• He attempted few clever entry passes which he normally doesnt do, which caught his teammates by surprise and they fumbled them

The Bad and The Ugly:

• He had to take some awful shots. Finland went to him on many late clock shots and Lithuania always doubled him immediately.
• Especially in the second half Lithuania collapsed their entire defense and had 3-4 guys in the lane when he drove in. He had good open passing targets but was constantly late with the kickouts.
