Luka Doncic’s stay with Slovenia to play the World Cup is creating controversy. After a good individual year in Dallas, but horrendous on a collective level, the point guard has eagerly accepted the national team tournament; However, an untimely injury has caused quite a few to raise their ears. Although recently it was Tim MacMahon from ESPN who pointed out that there was no concern, it is worth listening now to the player himself explain how he feels about it.
“It is an old injury that caused me problems in March in the NBA. Therefore, we performed an MRI. Everything’s fine. Nothing has worsened compared to what happened the other time, “he comments to Sports Illustrated.
After clarifying that he is fine and that he will have no problem playing the Basketball World Cup that will take place in Indonesia, Japan and the Philippines from August 25 to September 10, Doncic stresses that he is going to such a championship with the sole goal of becoming champion.
“The objective is always the same: to win the championship. Of course, this is a wish, but what actually happens in the tournament is another matter. I myself am very motivated, and I am also more motivated by the failure of my team in the NBA and the failure of Slovenia last year », he concludes.
