Adam Hanga, a player for Crvena Zvezda and a guard for the Hungarian national team, spoke ahead of the start of the qualifying cycle.
For the experienced player, there is no rest as he immediately joined the national team after winning the Radivoj Korac Cup. Hungary begins their journey against Iceland, and the seasoned Hanga expressed his satisfaction that EuroLeague and FIBA had reached an agreement.
“EuroLeague has finally reached an agreement with FIBA, and no EuroLeague rounds will be held during these short ten days. If you look at the squads, many EuroLeague players could have also come. The results will determine whether this complicates or weakens our situation, we will have a very difficult task. We are in a group where Turkey and Italy have a stronger basketball tradition than us,” Adam Hanga began.
As mentioned, Hungary’s first game is against Iceland, and the Crvena Zvezda guard emphasized that the first game in the qualifying windows is always important.
