Lauri Markkanen Hype & Appreciation Thread

Jazz front office should take a look to Finnish NT roster, and with the light of all their future picks look to a certain Miro Little.

There is a lot to look into Finnish roster, but sadly some of them retired/are retiring. The point is that current Lauri never prevailed without his teammates. In the past no player did that either.
 
I don’t know the math but if he keeps on this pace he’s probably going to average 27-28 points with 52/42/87 numbers. How many players are putting up these numbers?
Lauri plays for a tanking team so nobody gives a flying **** about his numbers. That's how it goes.

"Hey, I guess somebody needs to score even on trash teams."

Guys on bad teams put up big but bad numbers. Markkanen is putting up elite numbers and their record though below 500 that record doesn’t scream tanking

The "good player on a bad team" analogy doesnt work for Markkanen for his effectiveness and undeniable starter quality.

That analogy relies on an average player getting increased minutes, usage and touches since there are no better options.
