Although his participation time is very limited, o Sasha Vezenkov he doesn’t give up and seems determined to succeed in the NBA.
“I’m trying to adapt. America is something very different and very big. I’m not 20 anymore, when you adapt faster. My teammates and my family are there for me. I am very happy to be here. I’m trying to chase my dreams and earn more minutes“, the Kings forward told Meso in Bulgaria.
“Everything is different here – the training centres, the level, the talent. In Europe we see more intense matches, where there are more tactics and the results are more important. The NBA is more of a show, there are more highlights here, while in Europe the result and the win count more“, he added.
An injury has kept him out of action for nearly two weeks, so the 300 or so compatriots in the stands for the game against the Bulls in Chicago could not see him up close. “I’m still injured. Unfortunately I couldn’t take part in the race, although I really wanted to, because it was special for me. The support of so many Bulgarians is incredible. There were indeed many Greeks, but there were much more Bulgarians. Even my teammates said ‘wow’. because they had never seen so much support. Chicago is a very nice city, we were in a Greek restaurant to remember what Greece is like. I am very happy».
