New York Knicks: Mindaugas Kuzminskas, Lithuania advance at EuroBasket

As the New York Knicks prepare for the 2017-18 NBA regular season, Mindaugas Kuzminskas is making it clear that he won’t be overlooked. Kuzminskas has been one of the best players at EuroBasket 2017, piecing together a number of high-quality performances for his native Lithuania.

Kuzminskas’ brilliant tournament continued on Tuesday, September 5, when he helped his national team secure yet another crucial victory.

Lithuania was stunned by Georgia in its first game of EuroBasket, falling 79-77 to the heavy underdog. It bounced back with an 88-73 win over Israel, however, and followed with a 78-73 victory over Italy to improve to 2-1.
