Olympics and FIBA summer

[MAVS-SLO]

FWIW, Hachimura looks pretty good. I wouldn't mind taking a shot at him if he ever became available. Looks like he has some good BBIQ. Seemed to handle the ball OK. Nice stepback move. Some range on his shot and seems pretty athletic. A bit of a black hole in their offense, though he did score 35. I think he has another year in DC before he gets to decide on his rookie extension.

Likewise, Wantanabe seems like he has some playability. Played 14.5 mpg and shot 44%/40%/83% with 3 reb in 50 games at TOR last season. He was on a 2-way contract last year, so he should be available. Maybe take a look at him for the Summer league?

Luka wasn't OMG stellar tonight, but played a good team game and trusted his mates. The "other" Dragic was key and took advantage of the attention paid to Luka.

Does anyone know how much of this Slovenia team was part of the Euro Championship a few years back?

7 players from this roster was also in Eurobasket 2017.

Goran retired from national team, Vidmar (not sure if he retired from national team or is just injured), Anthony Randolph (Tobey replaced him as a naturulized player), Rebec (Rupnik replaced him as a 3 point guard on the team) and Zagorac who retired from basketball.

Today, we have fairly young team, with only 2 players who are older than 30 years old.

Tobey (26), Dimec (27)
Čančar (24), Murič (29), Čebašek (30)
Dragič (32), Hrovat (26)
Prepelič (28), Blažič (31)
Luka (22), Nikolić (26), Rupnik (27)

There is also Žan Mark Šiško (24), first point guard of Bayern Munchen who is missing olympics beacuse of injury.

Also young players who are coming are also talented. Our U20 national team won EuroChallenge 1 week ago.

Gregor Glas (SG/SF 20) who was also MVP of tournament is (probably) NBA level of prospect. They were rumours that he could declare for 2021 draft, but for now he will stay in europe for at least 1 season.

Luka Ščuka (3/4 19) could also find his role in Nba. 

Duščak (PG 19) and Radović (3/4 19) also played huge role, but both of them are more Euroleague type of prospects. 

Žiga Samar didn't play, but as a prospect i could see him as a borderline Nba prospect.

And there are also a some younger prospects like, Mark Ivanković (PG/SG 18 Eurolegue prospect), Urban Klavžar from Real Madrid young team (PG 17) Nba prospect, Saša Ciani (18, 4-5) Nba prospect, Jan Vide another player from Real Madrid (PG 16) and Urban Kroflič (15) also from Real Madrid.

And there are also some players in NCAA like Luka Tekavcic (4-5) ORU, Aljaž Kunc (3-4) Iowa State, Maj Dušanič (4-5) USF, Maks Klanjšček (2-3) Maine, Vasja Pandza (4) Seattle...

The future is bright for our national team.
