    Croatian Dario Saric, only 17 years old, put up a better stat line than JV today. 22 points on 9/14 shooting, 11 rebounds, 4 assists, and 1 block.

      You need to ignore Jonas' 5 blocks, duh.

          Well it a U-19 tournament, I'm sure the rankings would change dramatically every year or so because the young players come and go to the next level.

            Jonas started off strong but his team went limp after the half. 8/18 is not bad compared to the 4/11 and 2/8 gems his teamates pulled in. He kept his team in it with his defensive presence, those 5 blocks kept it a lot closer than it shouldve been. his 5 off rebounds came a lot from missing putbacks, getting the rebound, and puttingback the putback. thats were his lofty feildgoal total came from aswell. Overall he was the best player on his team, he is extremely active under the basket, always moving, and has very good hands (good at finishing + catching and holding on to the ball). Im excited for the defensive presence Val and Ed will bring to our team.
            The Baltic Beast is unstoppable!

              The game was lost in the last few minutes of the 2nd quarter. In a short time Katic put 10 points on the board that were never answered. Jonas had a block party, but his teammates did not show up.


              Also the kid did not get a rest till 8:30 in the 3rd quarter. He played every second of the 1st and 2nd quarters, IMO he started the game off on fire snatching every rebound. Looking like the most dominant player (by the stats), only to fizzle out towards the end. Most of those stats were gathered in the first half. A few minutes rest here and there would of been good, after all he is not a guard, he is a big man, and playing them too much is just asking for trouble.
