Arizona’s Lauri Markkanen is apparently a trick shot master

Lauri Markkanen’s success so far his freshman season has a bit to do with his efficiency.
The freshman out of Finland is shooting 49 percent, 44 percent from three-point range and 84 percent at the foul stripe while averaging 15.8 points per game. In his last outing, he took and made just four shots — three of them threes — and hit all four of his free throws to finish with 15 points.
Because he doesn’t take risky shots does not mean he isn’t capable.
See the evidence below.

Yep, Markkanen is even efficient on trick shots.
