His first field goals dates back to the night of Novembre 27, 2010, in Charleroi, Belgium. <\/strong>His team, Real Madrid, lost unexpectedly that night, 67-49. However, Nikola Mirotic, who has had two scoreless appearances early in the season, accumulated four points during the game. The first four of his career. In Madrid, last night, he surpassed 4,000 points scored. Not bad for a wanna-be football striker, who gave up his dream to be the best footballer ever at his height because in fact nobody that tall has ever made it big on the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On April 23, 2014, in Athens, on the road again, he scored the 1,000th<\/sup> point of his EuroLeague career. Real Madrid lost Game 4 of a five-games playoffs series that ultimately won, 71-62 against Olympiacos. Mirotic entered that game with 996 points scored. He made a two-pointer early in the game and got over 1,000 in the third period off a three-point play converted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 2.000-point threshold dates back to the second parte of his European career, on March 30, 2021, in Tel Aviv, when he scored 23 points for Barcelona. He entered into the game 17 points shy of 2.000. With 6:07 left in the game, he made the three-pointer that pushed him at 2.002.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the start of the 2022\/23 season, Mirotic counted 2.736 points, but he had to miss the first ten games because of an injury. The 3.000 points were surpassed on March 10, 2023, in Istanbul. He began the game vs Fenerbahce seven points away from the threshold. During the first period, he converted a three-point play, added a three and a little bit later from the line he had his seventh point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
