December 14, 2019 – Croatian basketball player Bojan Bogdanovic scored 32 points on Friday night, eight of which were three-pointers, in the Utah Jazz victory over the Golden State Warriors (114-106), while Ivica Zubac was modest with five points in the LA Clippers’ win against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
Utah was able to make up for a double-digit deficit in the first half and finally celebrated against the visiting Warriors. Our brilliant Bogdanovic spent 37 minutes on the court, and with the impressive 32 points scored (shots in play 8/18, three-pointers 8/13), he recorded four rebounds and one assist. The Croatian basketball player evened the club’s record in the number of three-pointers scored in one game. Donovan Mitchell added 28 points and Rudy Gobert had 15 with the same number of rebounds for Utah’s tenth home win.
