Mikael Jantunen Helps Finland To EuroBasket Qualification, Returns Soon

Getting the start in Finland’s FIBA EuroBasket 2022 Qualifier on Friday morning, Jantunen finished with 11 points and four rebounds in their 92-84 victory over Switzerland.

Serbia defeated Georgia later Friday, securing Finland’s spot for EuroBasket 2022. This will allow Jantunen to miss the next qualifier and arrive back in Salt Lake City on Saturday night. 

But Utah fans should temper expectations about when he will be allowed to return to the court. According to CDC recommendations, passengers traveling to the states from Georgia and Finland should undergo a seven-day quarantine.

With the Utes scheduled for home games against UCLA on Thursday, Feb. 25 and USC on Saturday, Feb. 27, there’s an outside chance Jantunen returns for both if he’s cleared ahead of the recommendation time.

I watched last 5 minutes of the game. It doesn’t get much worse than that trying to close out a game. That was embarrassing!
