Without Zoran Dragic, he will continue his career EuroBasket Slovenia. The experienced defender/forward suffered a quadriceps injury in the round of 16 match against Belgium.
“Obviously it was not the intention to strengthen the team in the remaining important matches. Sports are unpredictable. But with my voice, I will help my teammates off the bench,” Dragic said, among other things, in a statement.
Slovenia will continue in the tournament with 11 players as they do not have the right to substitute. The 2017 European champions beat Belgium 88-72 to reach the last eight, where they will face Poland on their way to the medals.
This year, Dragic averaged 5.3 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.2 steals in 17 minutes of participation.
