Nobody can stop Montenegro at Eurobasket 2013 qualifiers. Even without injured Timberwolves starting center Nikola Pekovic, Vladimir Dasic did the damage with 20 points in an away win against Israel (81-76), that was a big step towards securing the first place at Group A.

The first two teams of each group and the four best third placed teams will qualify for Eurobasket 2013. The host country Slovenia, France, FYROM, Great Britain, Greece, Lithuania, Russia and Spain have already qualify to the competition.
