Young Finn is Partizan’s latest addition, joining the team after strong performances at EuroBasket, where Finland defeated Serbia in the round of 16 and eventually finished in 4th place.Muurinen made his EuroLeague debut in Madrid, playing three and a half minutes against Real, after which he returned to the bench and received his first lesson from Željko Obradović."They are at an early stage of their collaboration. I have worked with Miikka for years. The coach surely knows that he has the potential to make those shots. But we manage teams in different ways. The best thing is that Obradović will lead him in a way that is open to him. Muurinen likes that. It’s a ‘match made in heaven.’ A perfect fit. And when you are guided by the best European coach..." Tuovi told Meridiansport.According to him, such a player must have the freedom to take risks for his full talent to emerge."Absolutely! Like all young players, he must be given space. We all know he will make mistakes and bad decisions. But with Miikka, it is clear that he is very open to learning. Very much so! Coachable. He likes direct feedback and accepts it, which is good," said the Finnish coach, adding:"He changed a lot last summer, but now he has especially matured. He played with professionals—Jokić, Antetokounmpo, Wagner… He saw that he belongs among them. That’s a strong confidence boost. The change has been very positive. And that pushed him to make the decision to come to Partizan," Tuovi concluded. Standings provided by Sofascore
