"FIBA Windows? They don’t allow NBA and EuroLeague athletes to play for their National Teams. It is a crazy formula, a mess. Basketball must be sold well and the product offered in the qualifications is not the best possible” the captain of Italy’s National Team said.
Datome talked also about next season in Fenerbahce and the economic crisis that Turkey is living.
“I am not worried because I received reassurances from the club that has always paid us on time. Obradovic and Gherardini confirmed that the budget will be the same as last year. Next season we will compete once again to win everything” Datome added.
