[Derinovic]

Cedevita destroyed Barcelona and Real and finished only fifth with 3-1 record Siroki Senior, U-18, U-16, U-14 BiH champion once again didn't get invitation for this tournaments, while Spars got one despite they were behind Siroki in evrey competion

In italy Saric and Mavra once again beat evreyone, but situation with Saric is very sad. He agreed with club to go on loan to Zadar, made 2 practices with them, then KK Zagreb club board said he was only excused for 2 days. He doesn't practice with first team, while his coach says he left club and doesn't know where he is. He is with Zagreb juniors...club get diveded on half...lol....Most likley Saric and Zagreb have no future. He has option to break contract this summer

Hungarian C László Dobos (19, 219cm) penned a five-year deal with Zaragoza.
Any opinions about him?

[pohani komarac]

[rikhardur]

Thanks for the vid pohani! He sure looks slow... Blocks and intimidation seem to be his specialty as expected. Wonder how his shot and back to the basket game are.
Zaragoza signed him as a long-term prospect and he expects to improve a great deal in the next two years.


On another note...

Germany’s Zipser Expects Tough Summer
By David Hein

Paul Zipser is one of the leading stars of Germany's next generation of young talents.

And he will need to show he's one of Europe's top prospects this summer as Germany were drawn into a difficult U18 European Championship group.

The Germans will take on reigning champions Spain, finalists Serbia as well as Ukraine in the Preliminary Round.

The Heidelberg native captained Germany to a fourth place finish at the 2012 Albert Schweitzer Tournament, making the All-Tournament Team as Germany's leading scorer, third best rebounder, tied for best assist man and the second best shot-blocker in the tournament.

Zipser, who turned 18 in February, had a strong season at German ProA (second division) club USC Heidelberg, averaging 7.9 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.1 blocks while shooting 56 percent overall and 55 percent from three-point range.

With the German Beko BBL league requiring six German players on the 12-man game rosters next season, Zipser will most likely move this off-season to a top flight side, where he will continue his development.

The young player visited with FIBAEurope.com after the tournament.

FIBAEurope.com: Germany finished fourth at the 2012 Albert Schweitzer Tournament. What were your thoughts on the tournament?
Paul Zipser: "We achieved our main goal of reaching the semi-finals. That's all that counts."

What is the biggest thing you and the German team learned from this experience?
We are still young players and every tournament is important for our development. And a tournament like this is very important in that way, especially being here in Germany.

At the U18 European Championship, Germany have Serbia, Spain and Ukraine in Preliminary Round action. Tell us how you see that group and those teams.
That is one of the hardest groups in the championship. We'll see. We're a good team. Spain and Serbia are a couple of the best teams in Europe. It will be tough.

What are your expectations going into that tournament?
We don't really know each other that well yet. We just want to start the tournament strong. We haven't set any goals yet.

The last time many people saw you was at the U19 German NBBL All Star Game in Ludwigsburg in January. Tell us about your development in the past year or so.
I have learned a lot, especially regarding the media and all the pressure around it. This year has been very important, very hard. I'm really happy about it. I finished my schools, the tournament, the new position in the team as captain. I've had to learn a lot this year. And I'm just trying my best.

When you start thinking about the future, what goals do you have in mind?
I have to finish all my school first and then we'll see, in two or three months. I have taken all my exams but I don't know if I have passed them or not.

What is the biggest thing you have to still work on in your game?
I think I have to be tougher and stronger. I have a lot to learn, just like any young player.

There are a lot of professional scouts at the AST. How is it for you playing in front of them?
I looked around before the game and noticed some people I know, but I tried to just play my game and not think what they expect from my game.

You have received a lot of attention in the past year or so. How much pressure do you sense?
I felt a bit of pressure here during this week at Albert Schweitzer. But it was not that hard to deal with.

Do you mean that he can become a "free agent" without any transfer fee (i.e. money) to KK Zagreb?

[rikhardur]

Nedim Đedović, younger brother of Nihad, signed a three-year deal with Barcelona.
Is he as promising as his brother? Is he considered Spanish already?

[pohani komarac]

Acording to "Sportske Novosti" Mario Hezonja send his papers to FIBA to break his contract with KK Zagreb and is moveing to Barcelona?

[pohani komarac]

Bosnian Emin Mavrić 1998. and Nermin Mavrić 2001. signed for Rimini. They were scouted by Italian menager Luciano Capicchioni.

Just this summer...those 2, Bosnian Edin Atić 97. to Madrid, Croatian Dario Šarić 94. Bilbao and Mario Hezonja 95. Barcelona. Whille Barcelona also wannts to bring 98. born Croatian center Sandro Antunović, Real Madrid wannts 99. born Slovenian Luka Dončič

This is realy geting sick.

[turk-jugoslav]

Luka Doncic attended Galatasaray's trainings in the summer of 2011. I don't know why Gala. didn't sign with him.
Kristijan Nikolov,point leader of the U16 division B, is a good prospect. He is around 185 cm with good mobility and fundamental. He was playing for Galatasaray U16 team and studying at a private Turkish high school '' Başakşehir Burç Koleji'' in the last season. I don't know if he's still playing in Turkey.

Arapovic (Cibona 96.), Lazic (Zagreb 98.)- Real, Mazalin (Cibona 97.)- Barcelona did not acept their ofers and stayed in Croatia and singed for our clubs, while Nikola Vujcic did not acept milion euro ofer for Dragan Bender 97. (Vujcic academy/Split) last season, but didn't wannt to tell name of club. also Bojan Nesic 98. from Serbia didn't acept ofer to go on try-outs for Caja

Imo, I'm reading on kosarka.si and eurohopes Slovenian Luka Doncic 99. to Real is done deal

[Joško Poljak Fan]

Luka signed a 5 year deal until he reaches 18. Dunno, but honestly he is too young. Signing kids at 13 y.o. that's absurd.
