Sergey Karasev got a surprise start vs. the Bulls Thursday, his first of the year. For the most part he did well, scoring 11 points in 32 minutes to go along with five assists and five rebounds. He didn't shoot well, going 1-of-7 from downtown and 4-of-11 overall, but a couple of passes were eye-opening, as the YouTube video compiled by Piotr Zarychta shows. His defense remains, uh, a work in progress.
In the Nets win over Philly, Karasev didn't play much, but had the NBA assist of the night, a near full-court toss to a streaking Bojan Bogdanovic for the score.
