For the first time in their small country’s history, Slovenia has won the European Championship called Eurobasket, beating Serbia (Bogdan Bogdanovic), Spain (Gasols, Ricky, etc.), Latvia (Porzingis) and Ukraine in the elimination rounds.
And they can thank the Dragon, Goran Dragic, who was once called the worst player in the NBA when he came over at the tender age of 22, developed into one of the better point guards in the NBA over the past several years and now is the MVP of Eurobasket 2017.
It really is amazing how many ousted Suns from yesteryear have won championships of some sort since leaving the valley under a cloud of confusion.
