Then another ones was okay. Generally was very boring sit at home and be without the basketball. They were two tough weeks. I couldn&#8217;t go to the gym, practice and play the games. I wasn&#8217;t afraid. I was just afraid of my people, who I Love. How they are is not the easiest situation in my hometown to right now&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ON EUROLEAGUE PROTOCOL<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think Euroleague do what they must to do.
