This young man, only 19 years old, played 21 minutes as a substitute, went 6 for 3 from the field, 7 for 5 from free throws, efficiently scoring 11 points, along with 4 rebounds and 1 steal.
He has already started attracting the attention of the NBA.
Then, in the match between Lithuania and Yugoslavia, Lithuania unexpectedly defeated Yugoslavia.
Actually, it wasn't much of an upset because Yugoslavia is no longer the Yugoslavia it once was.
After 1991, the talented Croatia and Slovenia have separated from this country.
By the time of the Kosovo War in 1999, Yugoslavia was further divided.
The once six-nation union of Yugoslavia now only consists of Serbia and Montenegro.
Soon, the name Yugoslavia will disappear from the long river of history.
Despite not having a smooth group stage, Lithuania lost their three matches influenced by luck; their strength is actually quite formidable.
As for Yugoslavia, NBA players like Divac and Stojakovic did not participate in this Olympics.
