Most teams are finalizing their roster before traveling to Slovenia for the upcoming Eurobasket, but Mike Fratello and Ukraine will do the opposite. As the veteran American coach explained, he will take 14 players in Slovenia and on Monday will announce its final team.
So far the Ukrainian national team consists of Eugene “Pooh” Jeter , Dmytro Gliebov , Dmytro Zabirchenko , Ihor Zaytsev , Maxym Korniyenko , Oleksander Lypovyy , Oleksander Mishula , Leonid Stefanyshyn , Artem Pustovyi , Maxim Pustozvonov , Stanislav Tymofeyenko , Sergii Gladyr , Viacheslav Kravtsov and Kyryl Natyazhko.
Great Britain has practically announced its final selection. Alex Marcotullio was cut, Dan Clark is expected to miss the tournament due to injury so the final twelve are Kieron Achara, Ogo Adegboye, Eric Boateng, Ali Fraser, Myles Hesson, Kyle Johnson, Andrew Lawrence, Gareth Murray, Liam Potter, Justin Robinson, Andrew Sullivan and Devon Van Oostrum.
