Blazic, who named the best teams on paper, believes that this year's EuroBasket is the strongest in the last 20 years

"For me, Serbia, Greece, and Slovenia have the best players on their rosters, of course each team has other players who can play basketball," said Blazic.

"I think this will be the strongest European championship in the last 20 years," added the Slovenian player.

"It will be really great, for all the players, and those of us who may not be at that NBA level like Luka [Doncic] or Nikola [Jokic], but we too will have the opportunity to fight for the national team's honor," added Blazic.

Slovenia, which is placed in Group B, will begin its EuroBasket 2022 journey on September 1, 17:15 CEST, against a strong opponent in Lithuania.

Besides Slovenia and Lithuania, the group of death also features France, Germany, Hungary, and Bosnia and Herzegovina.
