26 pts in 26 min is pretty good, huh? Only 1 defensive rebound though?

Montenegro - Israel game starts in about two and a half hours (11:00 pt). Just a heads up for those who want to keep up with Pekovic.
Edit: Finland, not Israel

It's hard to get a lot of rebounds if you block every shot.

Finland fronted Pekovic in the post and doubled with a backside defender whole game long, basically forcing other players to beat us, which they did. Montenegro was in cruise control the whole match. Most impressive thing about Pekovic was the way he regained composure after two very questionable fouls he picked up.
Hopefully Montenegro dominates this group.

Took a look at the live boxscore. With just under 3 minutes left, Pek with 22 points, 4 rebounds, 4 fouls, and his team up 8 ish. Not bad against Bargs. I would like to here more analysis and detail, but decent numbers again.

I'm so excited to see this guy beast in the NBA. I still think lots of foul trouble is most likely the first half of the year, but he just seems too big and too good to not be a servicable player in the NBA.

FYI, I believe he finished with 28 points, shot a ridiculous percentage (last I saw was 10/14) and fouled out Bargs. No official numbers, just what I caught off the Raps board. Still, a very solid showing. Oh, and his team won.
