Hawks' Bogdan Bogdanovic: Game-high 30 points in Olympic win
Rotowire
Bogdanovic tallied 30 points (10-14 FG, 6-9 3Pt, 4-5 FT), eight assists, four rebounds, two blocks and two steals across 32 minutes in Serbia's 96-85 win over South Sudan in the Paris Olympics on Saturday.
Bogdanovic was lethal from beyond the arc, and he has served as an extremely productive second option behind Nikola Jokic. The 31-year-old did it all in the win while leading the team with a game high in points and a team high in assists. South Sudan was able to keep the game competitive up until the middle of the fourth quarter, but Bogdanovic's offensive barrage while Jokic was on the bench helped Serbia pull away. In three group-phase appearances, the sharpshooter averaged 19.0 points, 4.3 rebounds and 3.7 assists across 28.0 minutes per game. The veteran will be crucial for Serbia in the Olympic quarterfinals, and his ability to get a bucket while Jokic is not on the floor could be game-altering.

Rotowire
Bogdanovic recorded 17 points (5-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), two rebounds and two assists across 29 minutes during Friday's 109-106 loss to the Timberwolves.
Bogdanovic's fantasy upside will always be tied to his scoring prowess and his shooting ability, and on that note, he continues to make his presence felt, scoring at least 15 points in four of his last five appearances. Bogdanovic has averaged 19.0 points while shooting 45.5 percent from the field and 36 percent from three over his last 10 outings.

He's averaging 24.0 points per game in that five-game stretch.

Hawks' Bogdan Bogdanovic: Explodes for 38 points in loss
Rotowire
Bogdanovic finished with 38 points (12-23 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 9-10 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists and one steal over 37 minutes during Saturday's 122-113 loss to the Bucks.
Bogdanovic posted his second-highest total of the season during the loss. While big totals come for Bogdanovic after a solid night of shooting beyond the arc, he managed a big number despite draining only five shots from downtown. He was effective with his mid-range shot and made nine of 10 attempts at the charity stripe to supplement his usual long-range skills. He also added 10 rebounds to create his first double-double of the season. After a modest start, the game flow started clicking for Bogdanovic in the fourth quarter, where he posted 17 points.

Bogdanovic closed with 24 points (9-19 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, five assists and one steal across 43 minutes during Thursday's 123-122 overtime win over Boston.
Bogdanovic's final stat line seems nice, but he struggled from deep once again, and he's gone 4-for-15 from three-point range over his last two games. He's talented enough to bounce back sooner rather than later, though, and he's scoring enough to remain viable in fantasy with most leagues in the playoffs.
