is this Rokas Jokubaitis guy affiliated with any nba team? 6'4" pg, adequate athleticism, 22 years old, averaging 15 ppg, 4 rebs 5 assists on 50, 47, 100 shooting splits. sample size is an issue, but at 22, he could be worth a look.

The Knicks own his draft rights.

NYK I believe. He definitely has his rights owned by someone via the draft

you guys appear to be right. 34th overall pick in the 2021 draft, so he's been fairly highly thought of around the league.

Pretty crazy Lauri only got off 11 shots. For those that watched the game, what happened?

I'm guessing a Finnish team that was already eliminated just didn't show up.

Eliminated in the 1-16 classification. They will still compete but will be 17th at best which to some doesn’t matter. Germany is 6-0 since last year it’s a tough bracket.

Great entrance from Kessler, Play few min, score , rebound, block....seems to have a lot of energy and power.

How many "better teams" are in the tournament this year? Canada has already beat the best non-American team. I think they will probably be just fine against anyone not named USA, slow start or not.

We'll see. Assuming they beat Brazil on Friday, they might be in a weird position against Spain on Sunday, where a loss helps them avoid Spain, USA and Australia until the finals.

Unfortunately I missed that game due to work obligations. Hopefully @Step-Back Hook or @Swuul or someone can enlighten us both.

I have a fairly good idea what the game might have looked like based on the first 2, but would rather not speculate.

I was in physiotherapy... Missing the game dint hurt at all.

Markkanen playing great. Scoring, passing, creating open looks, defending and rebounding well.

Inferior competition but nonetheless absolutely dominant thus far.

 

[FrenchJazzFa]

Looking at the game too. I agree, great performance from Lauri.
