While it might not have been the Boston Celtics player to dominate the Team USA Olympic contest with France most of us would have expected to be reading about afterward, Evan Fournier’s 28 points, 4 rebounds, an assist and a steal led all players in France’s upset 83 – 76 win over Team USA.
Fournier was the driving force behind the unexpected if not unsurprising win, the pending free agent doing his next paycheck no harm with his excellent play in Olympic competition this Sunday morning. For those of you who were too tired to get up at 8 a.m. to watch the game, we tracked down some highlights of Fournier’s best plays to peruse at your leisure.
Watch the video clip embedded below tweeted out by fan videographer Tomasz Kordylewski to see the St. Maurice native’s big game for France against Team USA.

Something tells us if he keeps up playing like this for the rest of the games that his next paycheck in the NBA might be a tad bigger than some anticipated.
