Synopsis: In my latest at Sportsnet, I previewed the Canada’s semifinal matchup against Serbia at the FIBA World Cup.
So, you’ve defeated Luka Doncic.
The FIBA World Cup allows no room for “easier” matchups at this stage, yet perhaps you feel like, at least, you’ve gotten past the largest individual player hurdle you’ll face on your way to the podium.
Ha!
Tremendous and heliocentric as Doncic is, and while he’s appeared and will continue to appear on NBA Most Valuable Player ballots for years, there is a challenge still ahead who has an even greater claim as “The Best FIBA Player In The World,” and his name is Bogdan Bogdanovic.
