Donatas Motiejunas would like to play in the Rio Olympics, but his back issues may keep him out of the Lithuanian national team, as also his negotiations for a new contract.
As he said to 15min.lt: “My desire to play the Lithuanian national team is huge and participation in the Olympics is a dream. But I have to admit that the hopes of playing with the national team are not high. It is totally unclear how long time will be needed in orger to get a new contract. My back is not 100% recovered. The doctors are saying that it is necessary to strengthen it and work according to specific exercises. I am still hoping that maybe somehow everything will work out, but actually I am aware that the current circumstances may not allow me to play with the national team”.
