Luka Doncic received an invitation to play for Slovenia in the qualifying tournament for the Olympic Games, despite being currently engaged in the NBA Finals. However, his arrival is not guaranteed due to the final series which could last until June 15 or even June 24 if all seven matches are played.
The qualifying tournament takes place from July 2 to 7, and the possibility of his presence in the national team remains questionable. However, his participation would be essential for Slovenia, especially given the challenging competition in Group A, which includes New Zealand and Croatia.
Greece, as one of the favorites, announces a strong squad led by Giannis Antetokounmpo and Kostas Slukas. Although names such as Josh Nib or Daniel Gafford were speculated, coach Aleksandar Sekulić opted for an experienced option, calling Mike Tobi.
Taking into account the dynamics of the competition and the potential competition, an extremely exciting battle to go to the Olympics is expected, with Slovenia and Greece as the main favourites.
