Giannis Antetokounmpo will not play in the match against Egypt in the Olympic Qualifying Tournament.
Such a decision was made by the head coach of the Greek national team, Vassilis Spanoulis, who decided to rest the NBA superstar, so that Giannis Antetokounmpo, after an unreal game against the Dominican Republic, will not have minutes tonight.
Greece against Egypt is chasing win and first place in the group, so this team will play against Slovenia in the semifinals of the tournament.
Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 32 points in about 20 minutes against the Dominican Republic with 11/11 shooting, which is a performance that will not be remembered for a long time.
Thus, he made it clear that he came to the tournament in Athens in great shape and that he wants to help his teammates reach the Olympic Games, which only the best in the tournament will provide.
It will not be easy, because on the other side, next to Luka Doncic and Slovenia, is Croatia, which has several NBA players in their composition. There are Dario Saric and Ivica Zubac, but also Mario Hezonja, who has been one of Real Madrid’s best players for years. Therefore, this tournament is considered the best. It is also played in Riga, Valencia and Puerto Rico.
