easy, too easy.

This year, his first public debut in the national team, Jokic played 27 minutes, made 8 of 12 shots, and contributed 23 points, 19 rebounds and 4 assists extremely efficiently, leading Serbia to defeat Greece 76-66.

Since there is no defense three-second zone in the FIBA field, it is much more friendly to big centers like Jokic than the NBA because it can reduce the running distance and help preserve physical fitness.

Jokic has played two warm-up matches for Serbia so far, against Greece in the second game. The first game was against Bosnia and Herzegovina, scoring 20 points, 19 rebounds and 9 assists, leading the team to win 126-89. So in the two games, Jokic scored a total of 43 points, 38 rebounds and 13 assists in data acquisition, and the invincible BUG is an absolute super killer.

It is worth mentioning that Antetokounmpo did not go to the warm-up match of Greece vs. Serbia, and he is undergoing personal training. The Greek coach hopes Antetokounmpo can return and play in the next warm-up match, with the earliest match against Montenegro on August 14 local time.

This year's European Championship will be held from August 27 to September 15, and will be grouped as follows:

Group A Serbia, Latvia, Czech Republic, Turkey, Estonia, Portugal;

Group B Germany, Lithuania, Montenegro, Finland, United Kingdom, Sweden;

Group C Spain, Greece, Italy, Georgia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Cyprus;

Group D France, Slovenia, Poland, Israel, Belgium, Iceland.

The well-known media "BF" released the rankings of various countries in the European Championships, as follows:

1, Serbia; 2, Germany; 3, France; 4, Turkey; 5, Latvia; 6, Greece; 7, Slovenia; 8, Spain; 9, Lithuania; 10, Finland.

So far, many NBA stars have confirmed to play in this year's European Championships. Not only Jokic and Antetokounmpo mentioned above, but also the well-known Doncic, Wagner Jr., Shinkin, Markkanen and Porzingis, etc. There is no doubt that this is another event that can set off a global basketball feast.

As bronze medalists at last year's Paris Olympics, Jokic (Nuggets), Bogdanovic (Clippers) and Jovic (Heat) all played again. It is not uncommon to be considered the biggest favorite to compete for the European Championship this year, but this may also be an invisible pressure.
