The initial reports from Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, on Sunday were dreadful after Brooklyn Nets first-round pick Dzanan Musa went down in a heap late in his national team’s 85-80 loss to the Czech Republic in second-round qualifying play for the 2019 FIBA World Cup.
Those reports included fears that it was an Achilles injury for the 19-year-old wing prospect, who showed a lot of promise as well as some bad habits to be broken during the two games played with the Bosnian national team on Thursday in Espoo, Finland, and Sunday in his native Bosnia.
