FIBA Europe, aka Eurobasket, is still three months away, but fans in Croatia are increasingly excited by their tiny nation's chances in the all-Europe tournament, and the leadership of the team still rests squarely on the shoulders of Bojan Bogdanovic.
In its weekly video report, FIBA TV talks about the importance of the Nets swingman, calling him "heart and soul of this team" and it's "Swiss Army knife."
Indeed, the red and white are loaded, but Bogdanovic is the star. In addition to Bogie, there's Damjan Rudez, the 6'10" forward for the Pacers; Dario Saric, the 6'8" point forward whose rights are held by the Sixers; Ante Tomic, the 7'2" center for F.
