The performance is stable during the European Championship! The core of Bosnia and Herzegovina team may rebound with the Jazz next season?

Basketball

In the previous 1/8 match of the Men's Basketball European Championship, the Polish team defeated Bosnia and Herzegovina 80-72 after a hard battle. After this game, Poland successfully advanced to the quarterfinals, and they will compete with Turkey for a seat in the quarterfinals; while Bosnia and Herzegovina was eliminated with some regrets.

In this game, although Bosnia and Herzegovina lost the game, the team's inside star Yusuf Nurkic performed quite well. Nurkic played 29 minutes and 07 seconds in the game, made 7 of 14 shots, 1 of 4 from outside the three-point line, and 5 of 10 free throws. He scored the highest score of the team with 20 points plus 7 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks. He also had 2 turnovers and 4 fouls, with a plus-negative value of -1. Nurkic has also shown his comprehensive scoring ability on the offensive end. Not only does he have good basket efficiency, he also has certain shooting ability, and he has also shown certain passing ability and support ability. Nurkic has worked very hard on the defensive end, and he can also play the role of the inside defense and protecting the basket. Nurkic's performance in this game was a sensational effort, and he had already played his own characteristics on both sides of the offense and defense. Unfortunately, there is indeed a certain gap between the team's overall strength and the opponent, and his efforts cannot help the team turn the situation around.

During this European Championship, Nurkic played 6 games in total, with averaging 26.6 minutes per game, with averaging 17 points, 8.7 rebounds, 2 assists, 1.5 steals and 1 block, including 3 frontcourt rebounds, 3 turnovers and 2.8 fouls, with a shooting percentage of 47.9%, a three-point shooting percentage of 31.6%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 59.1%. Nurkic's performance during the European Championship is definitely worthy of recognition. He can provide a lot of contributions to the team on both offense and defense, and he can maintain sufficient stability in almost every game and can play the effect he should have. This is also a very difficult thing. The fact that Bosnia and Herzegovina is able to enter the knockout stage without being favored can also show that Nurkic has indeed played a leading role.

Nurkic was born in August 1994. He is 31 years old, 213cm tall and weighs 132kg. He is the inside player selected by the Denver Nuggets in the 16th pick in the first round in the 2014 NBA Draft. Nurkic has also performed many wonderfully in the NBA. He was a key figure in the team in the Nuggets and later in the Portland Trail Blazers. However, his performance has declined significantly in recent seasons. His performance at Phoenix Suns and at the Charlotte Hornets was very average, and he was sent to the Utah Jazz this summer. However, his performance during the European Championships can indeed give everyone some hope. Perhaps he can also achieve a certain rebound in the NBA field in the new season?
