Looks like this will come true a few days after the Dallas Mavericks general manager Nico Harrison publicly said Luka Doncic should have suited up to play with Slovenia this summer.

The 25-year-old guard was seen in a video uploaded by the Slovenian Basketball Federation meeting with the national squad. Starting on July 2, the FIBA OQT in Piraeus, where Slovenia will meet New Zealand and Croatia in Group A, with Egypt, Greece, and the Dominican Republic in Group B, will get underway.

Aleksander Sekulic’s national team discovered a first friendly game triumph against Lithuania yesterday, prevailing 92-86 without Luka Doncic, just before such a crucial appointment.

 

The newest Olimpia Milan’s centre Josh Nebo – he signed a two-year contract with the Italian squad – debuted against Lithuania, therefore Luka Doncic would find another pick-and- roll partner this summer ahead of the FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournament in Piraeus.

He failed to find medals in his last two official events with Slovenia. Having Aleksandar Sekulic’s team, he averaged 27.0 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 6.1 assists per game at the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup. At FIBA EuroBasket 2022 he recorded 26.0 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 6.6 assists per game.
