Atlanta Hawks guard Tyler Dorsey looks forward to his official debut with the Greek senior national team in September’s World Cup Qualifiers with quite the anticipation.
“It feels good to be back. It feels good to back with the guys and getting ready for the practice games in Paris. I definitely feel a little tired and try to adjust but it feels good to be back and represent Greece,” Dorsey told Eurohoops.
Dorsey also said that the Atlanta Hawks were quite supportive when he told them that he wants to play for Greece in the first two matches (vs. Serbia on September 14 and Georgia on September 17) of Round 2 of the World Cup Qualifiers. “They were all for it. They were happy for me. They felt it’s a good opportunity for me as well. Somebody (Head of Basketball Operations and General Manager Travis Schlenk) from the Hawks will come and see me in Paris. They wanted me to come out here. They said ‘go ahead’
