🇸🇮6’8 Guard, Stefan Joksimovic for Baskonia vs. Valencia in R4 of ACB:
- 10 points
- 4 rebounds
- 4 assists
- 32 minutes
The 17yo lefty guard was efficient driving downhill and attacking closeouts. His confidence with the ball at PRO level is a major improvement for the young player. Joksimovic created a huge advantage with good kick-out passes and quick transition play from defense to offense.
Stefan has delivered two strong games in the last three days against top EL teams (PAO & Valencia). His role is rapidly growing as he earns more and more trust from coach Perasovic.

Tenendo conto che nel 2006 è stato uno dei 12 che ha portato la Spagna sul tetto del mondo vincendo l’Oro ai Mondiali, e l’anno scorso ha portato la Germania sul tetto d’Europa da un letto d’ospedale dove faceva riunioni quotidiane con lo staff pur avendo una pancreatite e aver perso 18 chili in un mese, far giocare una pallacanestro meravigliosa ad una squadra totalmente nuova che ad oggi è prima in campionato, una delle sorprese in Eurolega, e poco fa ha vinto a Milano dopo esser stata sotto di 20, è stato quasi un gioco da ragazzi.
Alex Mumbru ha i superpoteri.

Σε υψηλό επίπεδο από νωρίς λοιπόν μέσα στη χρονιά για τον Leland Walker, όπου ο ΠΑΟΚ κινήθηκε άμεσα.
Πιστεύω ότι σύντομα θα γίνει παίκτης Euroleague. 📌💯

Zoom out 📈 Season through Round 7
Panathinaikos lead the NetRtg table (18.4) with the best defense (99.2), as in the last 5 games.
Two different recipes:
Valencia (9.2 Net): built on offense, 123.9 Off vs 114.7 Def.
Crvena Zvezda (5.0 Net): built on defense, 107.6 Off vs 102.6 Def.
⚡ Pace: Valencia are the fastest (78.6), Fenerbahce the slowest (71.4). The 3 best defenses (PAO, Fener, Crvena) all play at 74.4 or slower.
🛡️ The 6 worst NetRtg teams all allow 120+ points per 100 possessions.
Baskonia are 19th, so the defensive rise starts from a low base 🔄
Factual and insightful 👏⤵️
I got a great idea (you can call it an assist) by @bogrinho - he shared his observation that although Greece has many referees with European experience, the finals are officiated mostly by refs who only work in Greece.
Let's see what happened over the last 3 GBL seasons 🧵👇
