Not a FIBA Qualifying match, just a friendly test game. Another one in Greece on 08/04
RE: FIBA Qualifying Tournament: Slovenia vs. Greece| August 2nd - Smitty - 08-02-2023
Anyone know where to watch? Google wasn’t much help. All I could confirm is that the game is at 1:30 our time

I know, but I figured I'd make a thread for the tournament and include the friendlies so we can all talk about it

As long as we get to talk plenty about Powell, I mean Green also

There aren't any channels in the US. The only one I could find was Sport Klub 1 in Slovenia and this website streaming the game.

Of course, use at your own risk etc. etc. Not 100% it'd even work.

But it is not a qualifying tournament, not this game not the official games later. National teams that qualified are preparing for World cup tournament

Luka with 14pts/8rbds/11asts in 20 mins of play. He looks rusty, but he is emphatically in better shape. Has a clear bounce to his step

Well to end the game Luka finishes with 20pts/10rbds/14asts. He still had a big problem with FTs. I think he was 8/14 for the game on them? He was over reliant on his step back 3 the entire game.
But the good stuff. Dude looks quick out there. Really bouncy. He blew past a couple of Greek defenders and layed it in and I thought I was watching a different player. Super promising. He still is Luka and did Luka stuff. Overall great game for him. Slovenia definitely is live or die by Doncic. The rest of the team outside of Prepelic, Cancar, and Z.Dragic isn't great.
And all of those guys aren't very good defenders. Hopefully this friendly was them shaking off the rust. They were definitely missing Tobey.

He looked great. Strong and lean. Hopefully he realizes his weight is an all year thing. He has the body where he can add bad weight very quickly if he is not disciplined. The nba season is long and hard enough. You don’t want to also deal with 10-15 excess pounds as well.
Loved the full court passes. More of that please. Him grabbing his ankle one time wasn’t great though.

Is Australia playing in this tournament? I see them practicing...both Josh and Exum. It will be interesting to see if Josh gets any noticeable minutes with the team after playing very little last summer. Same with Exum. Will be interested to see how he looks.
Both Canada and Australia have some really good talent on their teams. I am not sure who is playing though.

Yes, they are. Their group crosses with Slovenia in the second stage of the tournament

Seems like Kyrie enjoyed Luka's badass move.

Another angle of Luka's move.

Luka leaves the game with a knee injury

According to Slovenian media, it was only knee bump and he left the game just out of precaution. Vlatko Cancar apparently suffered a serious knee injury in the same game
