Fab 4 remain unbeaten at U18 EC

By CJ Clarkson | August 14, 2012 |

Spain, Croatia, France and home team favorite Lithuania remain unbeaten at the U18 European Championship after day 5.

Croatia had no problems with Latvia (82-62) and was again was led by super star Dario Saric. This 208 cm swingman reminds many of the late Drazen Petrovic, with his flashy moves, passing skills, shooting range and gutsy play. He is widely regarded as the top international prospect of his generation. He just signed a lucrative deal to play in Spain next season for Gescrap Bizkaia Bilbao.

Once upon a time the European Championship used to be scouted by American college coaches. Now, they have been replaced by NBA scouts.

    Kenan Sipahi from Turkish team is a real talent who has capacity to be one of the best guards in Europe in coming years

    Dario Saric is great, I heard he signed in Bilbao but hopefully he will be loaned to Cibona Zagreb.
