Lauri Markkanen Is SCARING The Entire NBA!



Lauri Markkanen Is SCARING The Entire NBA!

The NBA world is buzzing about Lauri Markkanen right now and the rising star has taken the league by storm this season. He went from being an out of place role player in both Chicago and Cleveland to a starter and the No. 1 option for the Utah Jazz. Lauri also secured his first All-Star appearance and most likely will get his first All-NBA Team designation as well. He has really done it all this year and has been scoring an impressive 25.5 points per game with an incredible 65.5% true shooting percentage. A feat only seven players in NBA history have done before him.

Lauri has really flourished in his first season, but the road to success hasn’t always been easy and in this video we will take a closer look at his NBA journey and his amazing season with the Jazz! Enjoy!

  1. They better give him Most Improved Player regardless of win/loss records. Jazz were doing great before they traded away 3 starters. They're still hanging in there now too. Very rare to see a near 11 point increase from somebody already averaging 14.8. Might be one of the most improved players of all time. What a turn of events. Humble, shooter, dunker, efficient! MIP!

  2. Correction: Lauri's high school team played in the Finnish second tier league. We don't generally have school sports leagues, so he went to a specialized sports school where the team played against semi-pro competition.

  3. Lauri did say in a interview that he made mistake by getting to much muscles first when he came to nba because it ruined he's shooting and hand eye control, Then he came back to finland at spring/summer 2022 and did alot small muscle and specific muscle trainings to get back that hand eye cordination

  4. Great video! What comes with Bulls i remember those comments what Bulls fans wrote about Lauri being too soft wash'd up too weak for PF Too slow for SF Why did we traded for him anyway etc…. I'm so happy he has found a place where he can grow and personally i hope he will never put Bulls uniform on again!
