The NBA has returned from it’s All-Star festivities, which means we have more basketball to talk about this week. Sabonis, Suggs, and Olynyk all had big games stateside, while the pride of Nagoya Jeremy Jones continued his hot streak in Japan. The FIBA World Cup Americas qualifiers are underway as well, with a pair of former Zags representing their home countries.
Domantas Sabonis scored 33 points with 14 rebounds and five assists in the Kings’ first game post-break. He followed that with two nearly identical games of 14 points, 16 rebounds and seven assists. Those three games were his 38th, 39th, and 40th double-doubles on the season.
