Bjelica's Double-Double Leads Serbia Over Finland

Timberwolves forward Nemanja Bjelica continued to turn heads at the EuroBasket 2015, finishing with a 19-point, 14-rebound double-double in Serbia’s 94-81 win over Finland on Saturday.

Bjelica also added two assists. He shot 8-of-13 from the field, 1-of-3 from the three-point line and 2-of-3 from the free-throw line.

Miroslav Raduljica, who was with the Timberwolves last season on a pair of 10-day contracts, finished with 27 points and four rebounds for Serbia.

The win advanced Serbia to the semifinals. The team is one win away from guaranteeing it a spot in the 2016 Olympics in Rio.
