Ioannis Bourousis wants to keep playin for Greece’s National Team.
The big man is playing in China this season but he managed to join his NT for the World Cup Qualifiers.
Per FIBA, "As long as I can stand on my legs, I will be a member of the national team," the 34-year-old said. "I have zero reasons not to be part of the team because I feel amazing every time I play for Greece. The national team is my second home."
The legendary big man went up high for the chase-down block, then came down hard with a nasty fall. It was a scary moment, but rest assured that he would do it again if he had to.
"Every time I hit the floor, I give my all to the national team. Greece has offered me so much and I want to give something back. This team has helped my career since I was really young. I'll never forget that I was on the roster in the EuroBasket winning team in 2005, only 22 years old at the time. This team gave everything to me. I want to repay it," the captain explained.
