THESE ARE THE FAVORITES TO WIN THE EUROBASKET
SERBIA
Svetislav Pesić assumed the bench of the Serbian team to put together a team capable of fighting for the next three international championships: this Eurobasket, the 2023 World Cup and the Paris Olympics in 2024. And the truth is that the Serbian squad is scary and is in the group of favorites. The leader and absolute reference of the team is a Nikola Jokic, who after winning the last two ‘MVPs’ of the season in the NBA, will represent his country looking for European glory. In addition, he will count as squires with Vasilije Micic, Nikola Milutinov, or Barça player Nikola Kalinic.
GREECE
Giannis Antetokounmpo has put on work overalls this summer, and with the selection of Greece will try to conquer continental glory. Dimitrios Itoudis’ team, with former Barça player Nick Calathes in their ranks, aspires to anything as long as ‘Anteto’ is on the court. His privileged physique allows him to play FIBA basketball in any position, something that makes him unstoppable near the basket. The nba champion with the milwaukee bucks also has Tyler Dorsey, Kostas Papanikolaou or Kostas Sloukas, that can also be important in attack, and an alternative to when Giannis is cornered by rivals.
FRANCE
the french team He has stepped on the podium in the last championships, but he has had to resign himself to not occupying the top spot. In this Eurobasket they have a golden opportunity to win a Eurobasket that they won nine years ago. The presence of NBA players is very broad, with Evan Fournier and Rudy Gobert as main swords, but with the madridistas Guerschon Yabusele and Vincent Poirier like squires in the paint, or with the ‘Euroleague’ Elie Okob on the perimeter. One of the strong points for Vincent Collet’s team may be the experience in championships that the French bloc has, and that he will try to win gold again in this European Championship.
SLOVENIA
The current champions of the tournament find themselves in the favorites group again. With a Luka Doncić more mature, and with the azulgrana mike tobbey occupying the position of nationalized, the Slovenian team will want to take advantage of the good moment of the star of the Dallas Mavericks to repeat crown. Doncic has continued with his progression, and his level has increased considerably to the version that was seen, with only 18 years, in the European past. Now, at 23, and with his ceiling still not in sight, he returns to FIBA basketball to, with the help of the Dragic brothers, Vlatko Cancar or Klemen Prepelic, raise the title of European Champion to the skies of Berlin again.
