What the Serbian center said in detail:
For Zalgiris and the difficult home ground: “It will be difficult for us because Zalgiris is very good at home. They are one of the best defensive teams in the Euroleague, but we have to go out there and show why we are in the position we are in right now.”
About Lonnie Walker: “It gave them a big boost. He is an excellent player and especially in personal scoring. It will be difficult to face him but apart from him they have good shooters and a quality roster, so it will be a tough game for us.”
On what he would like to see happen in the next year: “From a basketball point of view, I would be very happy if we won the Euroleague and the other two domestic titles. Beyond basketball, I wish everyone health because it is the most important, everything else will come.”
Regarding the prospect of a new contract with Olympiakos: “You never know, we’ll see when the time comes. Now the most important thing is the game against Zalgiris and to do our job properly”.
