Kuriose Forderung von Sasa Doncic, dem Vater von NBA-Superstar Luka Doncic. Dem Team-kollegen soll der slowenische Pass entzogen werden.
Nach dem Wirbel um Basketball-Superstar Luka Doncic (26/Los Angeles Lakers) vor dem EM-Spiel gegen Deutschland sorgt jetzt sein Vater für Aufregung.
Hintergrund ist der Streit um Josh Nebo (28/Mailand). Der US-Amerikaner nigerianischer Herkunft wurde 2024 eingebürgert, um die slowenische Mannschaft auf der Center-Position zu verstärken. Die Regeln des Weltverbandes erlauben einen eingebürgerten Spieler im Zwölf-Mann-Kader eines Landes. Der Spieler muss dabei keinerlei Bindung zum Land haben, in dem er spielt.
Seit 2024 bei Olimpia Milano: Josh Nebo (28)
<!–>
Nebo spielte 2024 beim olympischen Qualifikationsturnier, scheiterte aber mit den Slowenen. Vor Kurzem dann die Absage seiner Teilnahme an der EM. Grund: Verletzungen.
Zu viel für Sasa Doncic (51). Lukas‘ Vater ist Sportdirektor beim Verband. Und feuerte nun öffentlich geben Nebo: „Wir müssen die nächsten Schritte mit unserer Regierung besprechen. Immerhin hat Nebo einen slowenischen Pass bekommen, um für uns Basketball zu spielen. Das tut er jetzt nicht. Ich sehe keinen Sinn darin, mit ihm in irgendeiner Weise zusammenzuarbeiten.“
Heißt im Klartext: Doncic will, dass Nebo der Pass wieder weggenommen wird.
[–>Der Vater von Luka Doncic will slowenischem Nationalspieler den Pass wegnehmen
Das ließ Misko Raznatovic, Agent von Nebo, nicht auf sich sitzen. Beim Kurznachrichtendienst X (vormals Twitter) nagelte er gegen Doncic. Und räumte dabei gleich mal mit den Vorwürfen auf, Nebo habe den Pass nur angenommen, um auf dem europäischen Markt Vorteile zu haben.
Raznatovic schreibt: „Er hat sich nicht für Slowenien entschieden, um den Pass zu haben und damit – zum Beispiel in Spanien – besser gestellt zu werden. Das haben andere Profis aus den USA gemacht. Seine Motivation war es, auf höchstem internationalem Level zu spielen und mit Luka Doncic in einer Mannschaft zu sein. (…) Josh ist sehr verärgert, dass er die EM verpasst.“
<!–>
Und weiter: „Um es kurz zu machen – ein mögliches Aberkennen der Staatsbürgerschaft würde für Nebo keinerlei Konsequenzen haben. Solche Aussagen (wie die von Sasa Doncic/d. Red.) könnten hingegen dramatische Konsequenzen für den slowenischen Verband haben.“
Das Verhältnis zwischen Raznatovic, Entdecker und Manager von Serbien-Superstar Nikola Jokic (30/Denver Nuggets), und dem Verband ist ohnehin aktuell auf einem Tiefpunkt angelangt.
Standing Ovations!: Boris Beckers emotionaler Moment
In Slowenien stört man sich daran, dass gleich drei der von ihm betreuten Spieler (neben Nebo auch dessen Mailänder Teamkollege Vlatko Cancar und Urban Kroflic vom serbischen Klub Mega) der Einladung der slowenischen Nationalmannschaft in diesem Sommer nicht gefolgt sind.
Fortsetzung garantiert!
