D`Angelo Russell is considering playing for Lithuania. Zalgiris head coach Andrea Trinchieri reacted to the news at a press conference: I`m happy for him, happy, probably, for the national team if they go for it. But this is a political decision, I don`t want to participate in this discussion. Two countries - Lithuania and Serbia - do not want to participate in the practice of inviting foreign players to build a team, giving a passport to a basketball player in the desired position. I have no position on this matter. It`s all about the end goal. These countries have a lot of basketball pride. They consider basketball their main sport and want to succeed with their players.
But the school of players is no longer the same as in the past. Neither in Serbia nor in Lithuania. So there are advantages in both ways, " Trinchieri concluded.
