A glance tells me that it is not Basketball's finest hour.

No Marky Markkanen for Finland

Bahamas actually have some decent talent on their team. I didn't even know B. Hield and E.Gordon

Deandre lowering his trade value for every minute this game goes on

Does anyone on the Bahamas team realize Ayton is 7 foot and athletic? Does he?

Am I understanding correctly that if the Bahamas beats Poland then Ayton and Bahamas will be playing in the Olympics?

Edit: If they beat Poland they will play the loser of the other group for the Spanish bracket? And if they win they play likely Spain to qualify for the Olympics?

So basically Ayton and Bahamas have to beat Spain to qualify?

Croatia kicked Slovenia's ass today, and Doncic did his now-customary thing of getting a triple double on poor efficiency and looking injured:

Was our Chinese summer league player Jacky on the Chinese team?

 

[Pinwheel1]

I am proud of him. The guy had no business getting in his face.

Ayton Dominated lol

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Bahamas vs. Poland now

Ayton currently 1/2 on three pointers (in under 8 minutes)!

 

[Rastapopoulos]

As far as I can tell Jeremy Sochan is the only Polish player with any vowels.

(I tell a lie - there's also well-known Pole A.J. Slaughter.)

 

[PDXFonz]

Box score shows Ayton 0-2

Was it ruled a long 2?
