Djokovic shares conversations with Bogdanovic regarding Djokovic's EuroBasket injury disclosure
In a disappointing turn of events for Serbia's EuroBasket campaign, star player Bogdan Bogdanovic suffered a hamstring tear during the group stage. This injury occurred during Serbia's victory against Portugal.
Bogdanovic, a key contributor to the team, was averaging nine points, 3.5 rebounds, and four assists per game before the injury. His absence is a massive blow to Serbia's hopes of making a deep run in the tournament.
With Bogdanovic sidelined, the team now heavily relies on Nikola Jokic for offense and locker room inspiration. Jokic delivered a 39-point performance for Serbia in a match against Latvia, showcasing his determination to fill the void left by Bogdanovic.
Tennis superstar Novak Djokovic reached out to Bogdanovic after learning about his injury, offering support and suggestions for recovery. Djokovic called Bogdanovic twice, but unfortunately, the injury proved too serious for Bogdanovic to return to the tournament.
The specific year when Bogdanovic will be ruled out for EuroBasket remains unchanged. Despite the setback, resilience defines champions, and Serbia remains determined to keep fighting. The team is preparing for a must-win matchup against Czechia in the EuroBasket tournament.
The close ties between Serbia's top athletes during international competition were highlighted by Djokovic's outreach to Bogdanovic. Bogdanovic provided steady scoring and leadership alongside Jokic before his injury, and his absence leaves a significant gap in the team's offensive strategy.
As Serbia continues its journey in the EuroBasket tournament, the focus shifts to Jokic and the rest of the team as they strive to overcome this setback and make a strong showing for their country.
