Free Darko's Euro Guide For Beginners


Free Darko finds the definition of "Euro" to be too broad so breaks it down by country for us. Skita is the example they use for the Georgian NBA players.














GEORGIA
Population: 4,677,401

Example: Nikoloz "Skita" Tskitishvili

Style of Play: a wussier, slightly disinterested version of LithuaniaNotable Anecdote: Skita, and his then Warriors teammates Andris Beidrins (Latvia) and Zarko Cabarkapa (Serbia) once pulled up to an NYC club in a horse-drawn carriage.

Additional notes: When asked about his rumored "ballet training" on draft night, Skita shot back (in perfect, hip-hop-inflected English) that it was actually a form of Georgian national dance.

Do they have black people?: No. For the millionth time, it's not that Georgia.
