Although the start of the NBA season is still a few months away, Bucks forward Mirza Teletovic will take to the court in September for the FIBA EuroBasket 2017 qualifiers. Teletovic will represent his native country, Bosnia and Herzegovina, in the tournament, hoping to push his team forward to the FIBA EuroBasket 2017 Final Round next summer.
A total of 24 teams will participate in FIBA EuroBasket 2017 and with 13 of the 24 teams already qualified, that leaves just 11 remaining spots, which will be determined in the upcoming qualifying tournament.
In order to get to the finals next September, Teletovic and Bosnia and Herzegovina will need to navigate their way out of a three-team group in the qualifying tournament, which begins Aug.
