In the last days and after the NBA and FIBA joint interview of creating and conducting a European league, European and world basketball awaits the next moves of the two leading organizations.
A new European league is quite likely to ‘threaten’ the Euroleaguewhich has gathered all the … big wallets, but also the foam of European clubs.
His own view of the change in the world basketball map was also expressed by the Yusuf Nurkicwith the 30 -year -old Charlott Hornets center, stating, among other things How should NBA and FIBA respect the Euroleague and not … disappear!
In detail what he said:
For NBA Europe: “I think it’s a great thing. It will give players more opportunities and freedom to choose their teams. And I think as soon as the NBA comes everyone should have respect, because we know how people here in the NBA and Adam Silver join things. I think it will be a very good league.
I hope it doesn’t make Euroleague disappear because it’s a great event and there are great atmospheres. Everyone loves Euroleague and I’m a big fan. I watch it and hope FIBA and NBA can find a league that will really be equal to Euroleague. That is the goal. “
For whether he sees the two leagues coexist: “I see it. I don’t know. I feel that Euroleague is currently having its own rules. But I hope they can coexist. I hope they are doing something good, working for basketball and players, because everyone wants high quality basketball players. And I think that’s how they can make it work yes. We’ll see. “
