Barring a crazy comeback (which Luka can very well do), it seems like Slovenia will be headed home early.
Which kind of sucks, because while I want Luka to rest and be healthy for the upcoming season, I also sort of wanted a cinderella story where it was Luka vs. Team USA in the finals for the Olympics.
Yeah that ain´t happening. You got Germany, Canada, Serbia, France, Australia there already, who will all be better. Getting there would be an accomplishment and it would require a healthy Luka. Let´s not forget Giannis is pretty sh*t at FIBA basketball and the talent level in Greece and Croatis are also not what they used to be.
