The two Lithuanian teams were not accepted by FIBA
According to http://t.co/r1cm5JOGa0, FIBA Europe didn't accept Lietkabelis & Prienai into the new competition. Should be 56 teams in total.
— Simonas Baranauskas (@LithuaniaBasket) 3 Agosto 2015Prienai coach Šeškus: "How can we talk about a 'high level of FIBA' when — after paying a deposit — we're removed a day before the draw."
— Simonas Baranauskas (@LithuaniaBasket) 3 Agosto 2015Virginijus Šeškus: "This is absurd. Altogether, we were informed about this decision by other people."
— Simonas Baranauskas (@LithuaniaBasket) 3 Agosto 2015Šeškus: "And FIBA plans to organize a tournament that's going to replace Euroleague? I know understand why everyone is against them..."
— Simonas Baranauskas (@LithuaniaBasket) 3 Agosto 2015Coach Seskus after his team Prienai was rejected by FIBA 1day before draw: "It's a circus! No Euroleague team will go to FIBA tournament"
— Donatas Urbonas (@Urbodo) 3 Agosto 2015Lietkabelis also rejected by FIBA. Their GM got confirmation on Friday that everything is ok. Got the news with 1hour left before the flight
— Donatas Urbonas (@Urbodo) 3 Agosto 2015Decision of FIBA is not official yet as Lietkabelis GM told. But this info was provided by Lithuanian Basketball Federation
