Gianni Petrucci, president of the Italian Basketball Federation (FIP), spoke to Corriere dello Sport. He also discussed the NBA Europe project.

“It’s a new development that will be good for the system, bringing resources and spectacle. The agreement also states that registered clubs must participate in the championships.”

“The Euroleague is a private organization. And to be honest, it doesn’t even give us players during FIBA windows.”

“An NBA league is precisely the opportunity to increase competitiveness and expand the pool. If Manchester United, the most popular soccer team in the world, has already said yes, there must be a reason, right?”

“Rome will not be left out. There is a very concrete option linked to a wealthy entrepreneur.”
