The absolute “Euro-sensation” of NBA this year, is without a doubt, Kristaps Porzingis. The rookie from Latvia has taken the NBA by storm, pleasantly surprising the New York Knicks fans as well as everyone…. who had underestimated his abilities. “Where is Latvia in the map?” some might wonder.
If people like Phil Jackson (who, like a seer, had foreseen what the 20 year old player would do for his team) have the right to feel justified enough for this choice, in order to rub the young guys’ stat sheets in every doubter’s face, people in Latvia must be absolutely delighted to see Porzingis conquering the best basketball league in the world.
It is not surprising that songs are written that are dedicated to him… like the one from the Latvian band “OLAS”. As they preach… “Keep calm like Kristpas Porzingis”.
