After this match, Indy Star noticed that D. Sabonis has been attacking a little less recently.
According to the Indy Star reviewer, the Lithuanian is very effective when catching the ball while playing. picenrole or crossing under the basket, but if the attack fails on the first move, it becomes more difficult to attack effectively: when playing towards the basket, your accuracy decreases.
