The first person in the European Championship was born! Are you so tired of being in the NBA? The Jazz are really fighting for the No. 1 pick

On the third day of the European Championship, the Eight Immortals crossed the sea and each showed their magical powers. Stars from the NBA have also begun to use their ultimate moves, let’s take a look at the game situation first.

Finland 109-79 UK

Finland star Markkanen made 13 of 22 shots, including 7 of 13 three-pointers, 43 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist and 4 steals, and only played 23 minutes, 43 points in 23 minutes, which was too exaggerated. He scored 29 points after the first half. There is no doubt that the most explosive player in this year's European Championship is Markanen, who performed overwhelming NBA superstars such as Jokic, Antetokounmpo, Doncic, and showed absolute dominance in the international arena. In the warm-up match some time ago, Markkanin scored 48 points and 42 points in a single game, and none of the other players scored 40+. In the first game of the main game against Sweden, he easily scored 28 points, 3 rebounds and 6 assists.

In the NBA, although Marca's status is not as good as a teacher, Antetokounmpo and other super giants, he is an All-Star player after all, and has been the All-Star starter in 23 years. In the past two seasons, Markkanen's performance in the NBA has begun to decline, especially last season, when he averaged 25.6 points and 8.6 rebounds per game in the All-Star season, while last season he averaged only 19.0 points and 5.9 rebounds per game, and his shooting percentage in both events has dropped by at least 5 percentage points. Of course, Marca's decline may be related to his team's status. On the one hand, the Jazz pays more attention to cultivating younger Kessler and George. On the other hand, the Jazz wanted to play badly, and Marca played too well and did not give him too much playing time. It seems that Markkanen is really a suffocating in the NBA and starts to show off his skills in the FIBA ​​arena.

Serbia 80-69 Portugal

As the number one seed of this European Championship, the world's second-ranked top team, Serbia's performance in this game was actually average, and he only won 10 points from Portugal. Jokic scored 23 points and 10 rebounds on 8 of 10 shots, which was very efficient, but Teacher Yo played like a blue-collar player in the national team. He felt that he had no tactical status. I don’t know if it was because he was too lazy to play. Jovic made all 6 shots, scoring 18 points, and Bogdanovic scored 3 of 4 shots and scored 7 points and 5 rebounds.

It is worth mentioning that during the game, Serbian player Petroshev was sent off to the opponent in the first quarter. After the game, the FIBA ​​issued a statement, imposing a penalty on Petershev: a FIBA ​​official game was suspended for three years and a fine of 5,000 euros was imposed. This three-year reprieve is really a long time to live. There are reprieves on the ban. The FIBA ​​also explained that if the player commits the same or similar behavior again during the probation period, the suspension for one game will be immediately imposed in addition to any punishment imposed on the new violation. In fact, it is equivalent to a yellow card in football. The first time you warn, you will be executed directly if you commit another crime, and the delay will be immediately suspended.

Turkey 92-78 Czech Republic

Turkish star Shin Kyung made 8 of 9 shots and scored a quasi-triple double-double with 23 points, 12 rebounds and 9 assists. You know, in the history of the European Championship, there have been only three triple-double performances, and Shin Kyung almost became the fourth time. In the previous warm-up match, Shin Kyung performed very well. Although the data was not as explosive as Marca, his efficiency was also very high. In the three warm-up matches, Shin Kyung averaged 25.3 points, 8.3 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game, and his shooting percentage was as high as 63.6%. In the past few years in the NBA, Shin Kyung has made great progress and has become an All-Star at the age of 23. The Rockets he works in will be very interesting next season. This year they will be the second in the Western Conference. The loss to the Warriors in the first round of the playoffs is due to experience. But with Durant's joining this summer, the Rockets' combat power will increase significantly. Will Shen Jing join forces with Durant and Van Jordan to compete for the championship next year?

Germany 105-83 Sweden

Wagner Jr. scored 21 points and 3 rebounds, and Schroeder scored 23 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists. Most of these NBA stars in Europe are inside, except for Schroder, the only one who is a little black. The key is that he is dominant in the international arena and is quite strong. Schroder is at most an ordinary player in the NBA, but he is not a star, but he is a T0-level superstar in the international arena. In 2023, he led Germany to win the World Cup championship and won the MVP in the event; in the 22-year European Championship, he averaged 22.1 points and 7.1 assists per game, leading Germany to win the third place in the event. Can Schroeder defeat teams led by NBA super giants such as Jokic and Antetokounmpo in this European Championship?

Latvia 72-70 Estonia

Latvian star Porzingis made 8 of 12 shots, scoring 26 points and 7 rebounds. It is rare to see Posses release themselves once. He played very frustratedly at the Celtics last season and experienced a huge decline. He said that he was affected by illness and could not find a specific cause. This summer, Possesses went from the Celtics to the Eagles.

Lithuania 94-67 Montenegro

Montenegro star Vucevic was unable to support himself, scoring 20 points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists. On the Lithuanian side, center Valanciunas only played in the first half, shooting 8 of 9 shots, 3 of 4 shots, 19 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 block. The European Big White Bears are well-known. The Nuggets signed Big Valan this offseason with a buzzer-beating victory, and they were definitely a treasure, as the substitute center for the teacher.
