In detail what Jonas Gerebko said to “SVT Sport”:
“I would like to apologize. Everything went wrong and it’s all my fault. I would like to say a big apology to the people of Sweden. I made a completely wrong choice, although it was purely basketball, but it was wrong. I had doubts from the beginning. But, I haven’t raced in 1.5 years.
I just want to play basketball. Now, I understand that I was wrong. If I could go back in time, I would never do that. I regret it. I wanted to get back to the NBA and this was my only chance. I decided to use her. But I wouldn’t do that again and I certainly wouldn’t do it again».
