After the Svedent injury, Markovitch's activation and 12's 22-23 mining time seemed a one-way street for George Barzoka, and that's what the Greek technician did as none of the Americans in his region are famous for his creative competencies. Since then, the Serbian Guard plays with completely different confidence in his game and this is reflected in his statistics, as even in days he is misguided, he helps in the creative part by sharing assists with his teammates.
Markovic has competed in Valencia, Malaga, and Zenit as one of Europe's top guards and was a target for many Euroleague teams every summer. Barzokas managed to steal his signature, giving him a very insignificant contract, but next to Sved is logical that he can not perform as he should, since both need the ball in his hands to look. 18 points against Tessa as well as 7 assists against Maccabi came to remind everyone that we are talking about a very good player and one of the leading creators across Europe.
Against him he will find a lazy defense, we analyzed HERE How bad Darussafaka is defensively and it is no coincidence that players like Kalathis, Jovic, Misic and Huertas, who are all famous for their passing ability like Markovic, shared many assists in the matches with the Turks. I expect the Khimki Serb to do the same and the over 4 assists at odds of 1.87 from stoiximan do not leave me unmoved.
