Don’t worry Ime not playing around when Alpi comes back. My guess is Alpi been living the life, especially back in his home country and he will have a “wake up call” to get it together when he gets back here.
A little bit irrationally annoyed he hasn't improved his 3 pt shot yet, despite all this practice. Maybe its because he always improves in the off-season some aspect of his game, so my expectations are high.
Alperen Sengun had 25 points and five rebounds as Turkey defeated Lithuania 84 – 81 in Vilnius. This was the first loss for Lithuania during training camp ahead of the EuroBasket. Lithuania led 81 – 76 down the stretch after coming back from down 59 – 66 in the beginning of the fourth period. The game remained close until the last moments where Turkey made the right plays to get the win. Rokas Jokubaitis had 19 points, seven rebounds and six assists for Lithuania. Cedi Osman contributed 13 points to Turkey’s win. Deividas Sirvydis scored 13 and dished out six assists. EuroHoops.net
Don’t get your hopes up. In his interview he mentioned that he worked on getting his touch back around the rim. No 3 pt mention. I don’t think it is high in their priority list.
On 8-23-25 vs Montenegro with the veteran Vucevic on the court, here's Sengun's line: 25 pts (10–15 2pt shots) 11 boards 4 steals and 2 TOs in 27 minutes.
