Kristaps Porzingis' Latvian team lost to Serbia by 10 in their 2017 EuroBasket. Meanwhile, Willy Hernangómez’ Spanish team crushed clearly overmatched Montenegro by 40, but who cares?
This, Friday, was a banner day. The Euro WonderKnicks are back!
Serbia 92, Latvia 82:
KP scored 18 points on 7 for 16 from the field and 3 for 6 from deep in Latvia’s 10-point loss to Serbia in Istanbul. He picked up just 4 boards, got into some foul trouble and committed 3 turnovers but he did block 4 shots! Probably wasn’t his best game—particularly the second half—but shiiiiiit just look at these plays:
Porzingis is gonna get Latvia in a war if he keeps disrespecting other countries like this.
