More on this storyline

Back in 2017, Dragic had many great teammates to celebrate the gold with but he would love to also have a specific someone with him. His brother Zoran, a staple of the national team’s lineup, was out due to injury. “In 2017 when we won the gold my brother was hurt and he couldn’t help us,” Dragic said. “This EuroBasket is one of the toughest but we come here with high expectations and I would love to win a medal with my brother definitely.” -via EuroHoops.net / September 1, 2022 Jason Anderson: Final: Slovenia 92, Lithuania 85 Goran Dragic had 19 points and eight rebounds for Slovenia.
