In the recent European Championship, Italy men’s basketball and Finland men’s basketball attracted people’s attention, and the outstanding performance of fontachio and marcanin also made jazz fans in Salt Lake City on the other side of the ocean laugh. On the two, they seemed to catch a glimpse of the future of jazz. Although reconstruction is inevitable, Jazz will still watch a lot next season.
Italy came to the top in men’s basketball and pulled down the popular Serbian men’s basketball to win the championship, ending Jokic’s gold rush, which was a big cold. However, fontakio played a steady role in the competition. He played for 28 minutes, 6 out of 9, 3 out of 6 out of 3 points, 4 out of 4 free throws, 5 rebounds with 19 points and 2 steals.
In this game, so far in this European Championship, Fengtai Keo can score 19.2 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.8 steals, with a total hit rate of 50% and a three-point hit rate. At present, fontakio and Bojan Bogdanovic are tied for the seventh place in the European Championship scoring list.
Fontakio, 26, was born on December 9, 1995 in peskala, Italy. He is 2.03 meters tall and weighs 94 kilograms. He is in the third position. In his early years, he played for Bologna, Milan and other teams in the Italian league. He was selected as an All-Star and was also elected as the best player under the age of 22 in the league, the team won one Italian Cup championship and three Supercoppa Italiana championships. In recent years, he has traveled to Germany and Spanish championship. In the 2021-22 season in ACB, he could score 11.9 points, 4.4 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.2 steals, and the two hit rates reached% and%.
In 2017, fontakio intended to participate in the NBA draft and try out for the Celtics. However, he withdrew his application for the election because he was expected to only be selected in the second round. Until this year’s offseason, he signed a two-year 6.25 million-dollar contract with jazz, and the NBA door was really open to him.
After Gary Nally reimbursed in advance, fontakio at the European Championship was considered to have won the honorary title of “Italian Cannon. In fact, as early as during the Tokyo Olympics, fontakio’s performance has been widely recognized and even considered as the best shooter in the international arena.
If fontakio can be described as stunning, then marcanin in the European Championship is “crazy”. In the match that led Finland to beat Croatia Men’s Basketball men’s basketball, he was 19 out of 29, including 2 out of 6 points, 3 out of 4 free throws, and 43 points, not letting the letter brother and dongcheqi special beauty before. With this game, marcanin’s average score in this year’s European Championship rose to 27.8 points, jumping to the third place in the scoring list. His total hit rate (53.4%) and three-point hit rate (40.5%) are also amazing.
Seeing the two are so outstanding, jazz fans will laugh in a dream. Of course, FIBA and NBA are completely different, but this year’s European Championship has been recognized as having a high gold content. Besides, fontaikio and marcanin are not just “eating dumplings”, and their performance in the European Championships has always been stable.
In addition, the popularity of the two men next season is also related to the jazz status quo. After Gobel and Mitchell left, the Jazz continued to sell veteran generals such as Clarkson, Conley and Boyang, and was sure to follow the younger route. This kind of environment is especially ideal for marcanin, who needs ball rights, or fontakio, who is new here and extremely eager for equal competition opportunities and harmonious team environment.
Open the Jazz roster, the team’s enviable reserves of young players besides the first round of signing. From the back court to the front court, they were Malik Beasley (25 years old, if he was not sent away next Yogueta), Alexander Walker (24 years old), jaride Butler (22 years old), abaki (Cainiao, 22 years old), Zhu Zan (Cainiao, 21 years old, two-way contract), Sexton (23 years old), Taren-Horton-Tucker (21 years old), bolmaro (22 years old), Vanderbilt (23 years old), Stanley Johnson (26 years old), azubke (22 years old) and Walker Kessler (Cainiao, 22 years old). However, among the two players mentioned above, fontaikio is 26 years old as an “old rookie”, while malcanin is only 25 years old.
It is inferred from the present that the Jazz will take Sexton and markanin as the leaders in the new season. There are still countless possibilities in their careers and they all have strong will to prove themselves. This is the common ground between the two. They will become Jazz’s new internal and external combination.
In addition, the players can be divided into two categories, one of which includes Beasley, Walker, Tucker, Vanderbilt and Johnson. They have accumulated some experience and achievements in the NBA campaign for no less than three seasons, it is expected to be in a fixed rotation; The other category includes four Cainiao (including fontaikio), Butler, bolmaro and azubk who have been in the NBA for less than three seasons, there will be fierce competition among them, which is unique to young players.
Next, in the process of clearing several senior generals, jazz may put some of the above players into trading and bring back more young players from other teams. Going to turnip, washing sand on big waves, and getting out of the dual-core era, Jazz will give more people more opportunities.
From this, we can also see what kind of future blueprint Anji has planned for jazz. When it comes to the deal between Gobel and Mitchell, people pay more attention to the mountains of first round signing, but they do not pay equal attention to the players exchanged by jazz. But Anji did not only focus on the future but ignored the present. It is foreseeable that jazz will focus on military training next season and will pay for playoff and record. However, the future of jazz was gradually brewing in this obscure process. (Supine support/fur)
