Boston alum Shane Larkin has off night as his Turkey falls to Georgia 88-83 in double overtime

The former Celtics reserve floor general had trouble shooting the ball in EuroBasket play Sunday, and it cost Turkey the game.

Former Boston Celtics floor general Shane Larkin had an egregiously bad shooting day while manning the point for the Turkish National Team on Sunday afternoon. Turkey fell 88-83 to the Georgian National Team in double overtime in part due to the former Miami player’s difficulties putting the proverbial biscuit in the basket.

Larkin put up 9 points, 8 boards, 7 assists and a steal in a game that seemed like nothing was going right for the former Boston point guard. While he did not pick up any personal fouls in the painful loss marred by a fight between teammate Furkan Korkmaz and three Georgian players, Larkin shot 2-of-14 from the field overall and 2-of-10 from 3-point range.

The former Celtic was on the floor for 48:54 of 50 possible minutes of the double-overtime affair.
