Nikola Jokic and Serbia take on the Aussies in the quarterfinal round of men’s basketball at the Paris Games
Two medal contenders square off in the quarterfinal round of men’s basketball at the Paris Games on Tuesday morning, when Nikola Jokic and Serbia take on Patty Mills and Australia at Bercy Arena.
That’s not to overshadow the efforts of Serbia’s supporting cast. Atlanta Hawks guard Bogdan Bogdanovic led the team in group play with 19.0 points on 54.1% shooting from the field and 52.9% from 3-point range. The 6-foot-5 sharpshooter had 30 points and eight assists in a double-digit win over South Sudan.standout Filip Petrusev has been a nice complementary piece next to Jokic in the frontcourt. In 29.0 minutes per game, Petrusev averaged 9.7 points, 5.0 rebounds and 2.
Australia, meanwhile, battled through a rocky start and got some much-needed help from other teams to advance to the knockout stage despite losing two of its three games in group play. Following a 12-point win over Spain in the opener, the Aussies were overwhelmed by Canada in a 93-83 loss, followed by a 77-71 defeat at the hands of Giannis Antetokounmpo and Greece.
